The Professional Staff Senate has extended the deadline for submission of applications to participate in its mentoring program until Oct. 22.

The goal of the program is to provide formal or informal mentoring to UB professional staff. The program will match protégés with mentors from UB’s professional staff who have the experience, knowledge and insight to assist the protégé in meeting his or her goals in technical, career, leadership or professional development areas.

The Oct. 22 deadline applies to applications from both prospective mentors and protégés.

More information, guidelines and application forms for both mentors and protégés are available on the PSS website.
