The ASPAN Succession Planning/Mentoring Strategic Working Team (SWT) is thrilled that you have reached this site! The Up and Comers Program can open up a whole new world of exciting possibilities in your specialty nursing career.

 

Whether you are self-nominating or have been nominated by someone else within our organization makes no difference at all. The purpose of this program is to ensure efficient and effective succession planning by helping to identify the individual needs of members at the component and/or national level and by creating, providing and/or supporting interventions for members to reach their professional goals.

 

We do appreciate that the perianesthesia nursing community is diverse and consequently we feel that the varying generations, educational preparations, different practice settings and cultural backgrounds only add to the richness of our present and future state of well-being! Your desire to be mentored and your commitment to advancing the core purpose and envisioned future of ASPAN is the common link within our program.

 

Now that you know our purpose and would like to continue to pursue this exciting opportunity, we kindly request that you complete the posted formal “Mentee Application” and then forward it to the Co-Coordinators of the Up and Comers Program. If you do not have a mentor in mind, don’t be concerned. We will review your application to determine the most appropriate match based on your responses.

 

If you have any questions or concerns that you would like addressed please feel free to contact us: mbeturne@aspan.org and pwindle@sleh.com. We do look forward to hearing from you soon!

 

Sincerely,
