Mentorship


Mentorship program

The UBC Institute for Healthcare Improvement Mentorship Program runs for 8 months between September and April and is designed to connect healthcare professionals experienced in quality improvement (QI) with trainees currently enrolled in a health sciences program at UBC. Ultimately, this program aims to expand the engagement of mentors and mentees with their respective communities through QI initiatives and offers a rewarding, practical, and applied approach to mentorship.

Program overview: Students will be paired with a healthcare professional to collaborate on a QI project in their field. On completion of the program, students will have the opportunity to present their work in the form of an oral or poster presentation at UBC IHI Quality Improvement Day in May 2023. IHI UBC provides all mentors and mentees participating in the program the opportunity to attend various QI seminars, workshops and networking events throughout the year.

Student Eligibility: ​This program is suitable for any UBC students enrolled in a health sciences program. All UBC students are welcome to apply, however, students from the following list of programs will be prioritized.

Please contact 
mentorship@ihiubc.com on questions on program eligibility.
