\/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Description: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The BRET Office and ASPIRE Program will be offering a pilot program (delivered virtually) developed by the NIH OITE office for biomedical graduate students to learn and implement strategies for building resiliency into their professional lives.\u00a0 A small group (12-15) of graduate students will meet 6 times between Feb-May 2021 with the course facilitators to discuss a webinar viewed on their own time prior to the meeting.<\/p>\n<p>The 6 discussion group meetings will cover the following topics: (1) Intro to wellness and resilience (2) understanding cognitive distortions, imposter fears and stereotype threat (3) emotional intelligence and emotions in the workplace (4) self-advocacy and assertiveness for scientists, (5) developing feedback resilience, and (6) maximizing mentoring relationships.<\/p>\n<p>A confidentiality statement will be made at the beginning of each session to guarantee that this is a safe space and that the meetings will not be recorded.<em> Please note<\/em>: because this is a pilot program from the NIH intended to train our facilitators, an NIH Observer will be attending all small group discussions.<\/p>\n<p>The goals of the program are to:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Provide strategies and tools to help trainees\n<ul>\n<li>increase their resilience with a specific focus on academic and research environments<\/li>\n<li>develop interpersonal and emotional intelligence skills needed for success<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Provide a place for trainees to come together to discuss\n<ul>\n<li>resilience strategies learned in the previous lectures<\/li>\n<li>work toward integrating strategies learned into school, work and life<\/li>\n<li>life, career, research, school and pandemic stress in a facilitated setting<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><em>Expectations<\/em>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Required attendance at 6 group meetings via Zoom (1hr) according to the dates provided above.<\/li>\n<li>Prior to the group meeting, watching the provided webinar (2 hours each) via YouTube either asynchronously or synchronously (with the option to ask questions in real time with synchronous watching).<\/li>\n<li>Complete evaluation surveys for the NIH throughout the program to facilitate evaluation of this pilot curriculum.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A certificate of completion will be awarded by the NIH at the completion of the workshop.<\/p>\n<p>Note: If you have already participated in the ASPIRE Modules<em>: \u00a0EQ + IQ <\/em>or<em> Maximizing Your Potential,
