Virtual Training for Mentors through Iowa MENTOR Tuesday, February 25th, 2025 at 4:30pm - 6:00pm
We have advertised this training before, so if you have not already taken the opportunity to attend this training, we encourage it (however, it is completely optional). "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."
