About NASIG

Mentoring Group

Charge
The Mentoring Program is designed to help make new conference attendees feel more at ease, highlight membership benefits and create networking opportunities. Prior to each annual conference, a call goes out on NASIG-L for experienced NASIG attendees to sign up as mentors. Mentors are matched with first-time conference attendees, including grant winners. Mentors and their partners meet at the First-timers reception at the beginning of the conference.

Deadline
Announcement about the program goes out a month before the conference. Sign-up should be complete 2 weeks before the conference. Assignments are completed within several days after the sign-up deadline. Reminder about online-evaluation form sent out to NASIG-L a month after the conference.
