NSF-funded LSAMP MarSci-LACE has created the Mentor Development Workshop (MDW) a workshop that interactively engages potential undergraduate research mentors through the following five training modules: Introduction to Mentoring, Psychosocial Factors of Research Experiences, Ally Skills, Culturally Responsive Mentoring and Mentor Plan Development.  

These MDW training modules provide an overview of mentorship, emphasizing the mutual learning opportunities for both the mentor and the mentee, and provide effective mentorship strategies and approaches, with a focus on broadening participation in research. Workshop participants will receive tools and resources for use in their own mentorship practice.
