Utah Coaching & Advancement Network

Description

The Early Career Coaching Program provides coaching to University of Utah Health early career faculty to cultivate a successful academic career. Early career faculty often do not have explicit guidance to effectively manage the course of their career and professional development. Early career attention is often dedicated to technical skills, such as clinical care or education. Individuals often react to program needs and available opportunities, but neglect deliberate planning and execution. Departments and divisions often struggle to implement effective coaching and mentoring programs because of a lack of resources and process expertise. This program facilitates early career faculty to develop their academic career with clarity and purpose.

Goal

The program goal is to increase participants’ clarity on professional direction, satisfaction, self-efficacy, academic productivity, promotion, and sense of community within the University of Utah.

Objective

The ECC Program is designed for early career faculty who have been out of training for 2+ years, and are looking to define goals that build towards an overarching career vision.
