Classified Leadership In Mentorship Building (CLIMB)
"A mentor is someone who sees more talent and ability within you, than you see in yourself, and helps bring it out of you."
What is CLIMB?
CLIMB is a professional development opportunity for CLPCCD classified professionals. It is a mentoring program coordinated through the Classified Leadership Institute Program (CLIP), formed and developed by CLIP Cohort #2.
Mission
Our Mission is to empower CLPCCD Classified Professionals by building collaborative relationships where the focus is supporting their growth and development. One way to do this is through mentoring.
What is Mentoring?
Mentoring is a learning process between individuals. It’s a relationship that is created whereby an individual provides information that can help another individual grow and achieve their goal. The goal can range from accomplishing a new task to advancing in their career.
Mentorship Responsibilities
CLIMB is an informal program which means the mentor and mentee establish the relationship. Together the mentor/mentee will determine:
- Goals
- Meeting times (monthly, bi-weekly, bi-monthly, etc.)
- Meet at least once per month. (Minimum requirement)
- Release time granted for meetings/activities
- Length of the relationship
Mentor/Mentee assignments will be established by CLIP cohort members, based on application submissions. All participants must attend an orientation. Both mentors and mentees will be asked to complete program evauluation forms to document their progess and assess the program.
