    Mentorship Program Working Group

    The CANTRAIN Mentorship Program Working Group brings together a diverse group of members from across Canada to guide the development and implementation of CANTRAIN’s national mentorship initiative. Grounded in the principles of mutual learning and inclusion, mentorship is defined as a dynamic learning relationship where mentors and mentees share skills, knowledge, and experiences through thoughtful conversations, storytelling, and role modelling. This two-way partnership values difference, fosters growth, and supports professional development across a wide range of clinical research contexts (Definition based on European Mentoring & Coaching Council, 2021).
