"Iowa MENTOR will host a virtual training session on the mentoring mindset twice before the end of the year. This is a training for any individual that would like to be a mentor or is serving as a mentor in a mentoring program. A perfect "first step training" where we will explore some critical attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors that serve as the foundation of being an effective mentor. Participants will receive a certificate of completion and should come prepared to learn and interact with others."

Mentors need to only attend one of the trainings. Register at the dated links above.
