This four-part session offers early-career educational developers space for consultation, reflection, and relationship building. Registered participants are surveyed and grouped based on long-standing and emergent topics around job functions, professional development, career advancement, and relationship-building with particular attention to issues of diversity, equity, inclusion, and wellbeing. These topics are unpacked during the first live session with a facilitator, and expounded upon through a set of asynchronous activities over the course of two weeks. After a final live dialogue and near-peer mentoring, participants leave with an action plan and opportunities to reconnect with their group in the future.
