The Faculty of Graduate Studies' IDP is a tool to assist postdoctoral researchers, like you, to identify and develop your goals during your fellowship.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When creating an IDP, with the help of a mentor, you can enhance your professional growth and skills by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Setting and communicating goals<\/strong> related to teaching, research, and\/or professional development with your supervisor, faculty colleagues, or other mentors<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Identifying ways to learn or improve your competencies<\/strong> to be used during your fellowship and within professional spaces<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Identifying your strengths, talents, and passions<\/strong>, as well as opportunities to use them during your fellowship and in your future professional life while building an effective support network<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
