Mid-Career Series: Developing Next Phase Career Goals and Mapping a Path Forward
Join us for the inaugural session of the APEX Mid-Career Series. In this workshop, we'll focus on goal-setting and the path forward from Associate to Professor (or Assistant to Associate Professor for those who are on the clinical track and in mid-career). We'll discuss creating an Individual Development Plan that includes both professional and developmental goals. Our Faculty Affairs Assistant Deans will then be available in breakout sessions by faculty track to answer your questions about the promotion process, expectations, and benchmarks for getting that next opportunity.

APEX Mid-Career Series
The goal of the Advancing Professional Excellence (APEX) Mid-Career Series is to allow faculty to develop peer relationships that encourage them to focus on “next phase” leadership and career goals and map out a trajectory for achieving them. We aim to enhance the mid-career faculty experience and provide support for them to engage in the next level of career excellence. This series will be ongoing and emphasize creativity, innovation, teamwork, and mutually-beneficial mentor relationships.
