WINN Rural New Graduate Nurse Residency Program
Mentor Training
Mentoring is a Deliberate, Developmental Relationship
The Workforce Innovation Nursing Network Program is 100 percent funded by the U.S. Department of Labor through an H1-B award totaling $2,500,000.
Mentoring is "a 1:1 reciprocal relationship between a more experienced and knowledgeable faculty member [nurse] and a less experienced one as characterized by regular, consistent interaction over a period of time to facilitate protégé development." Haggard, et. al. (2011)
This series offers fundamental skills for clinicians interested in inspiring, guiding and supporting new graduate nurses.
Upcoming Series Dates:
Summer 2025 - July 9th (7:30am - 9:30am MT); July 16th and 23rd from 7:30am-9:00am MT
