Fig. 1: Attributes of career development, leadership and mentorship programs from around the world.
From: Community voices: the importance of diverse networks in academic mentoring
Graphs represent the number of identified programs according to a type of program, b geographic coverage of the program, c target participants, and d target career stage. Most programs we reviewed focus on mentorship, are offered regionally, are not limited to specific target groups, and emphasize faculty and postdoc career stages. Notably, no programs specifically target staff (non-faculty, university employees), despite evidence that staff and contingent faculty roles (e.g., adjuncts, non-tenure-track) do extensive service in mentoring and provision of DEI services in academia. Also, most programs include multiple target categories, so totals are >n in figure sections c and d.
