Huwendiek, Sören; Mennin, S; Ringsted, C; Amin, Z; van de Ridder, M (6 September 2015). Young medical educators' workshop: Finding the right mentor in Medical Education (Unpublished). In: AMEE Conference. Glasgow. 06. -09.09.2015.

Background: Finding the right mentor in medical
education is challenging, especially if you are relatively
new to the field. However, a mentor that is fit for
purpose offers great potential. The workshop will
explore strategies and pitfalls for successfully finding
the best available mentor.
Intended Outcomes: At the end of the workshop
participants will be able to: (1) identify practical
strategies for successfully finding the right mentor in
medical education; (2) give feedback on a proposed
idea of a platform for matching mentees and mentors
within AMEE; (3) establish an electronic network for
continued dialogue and support within the online
platform of AMEE (MedEdWorld).
Structure: After an introduction to mentorship in
medical education and characteristics of effective
mentors, participants will have the opportunity to
develop their own concepts and questions and discuss
them with other participants and facilitators. Senior
mentors will give advice from their experience.
Furthermore, a proposal of an online platform to help
young medical educators find a mentor will be
presented and discussed.
Who Should Attend: Young medical educators
interested in finding the right mentor and in
exchanging ideas with colleagues in a similar situation.
