Have you had a mentor who has helped you develop your career, supported your interest, helped you develop or meet your goals?

 

This mentor may have been a colleague, advisor, friend, or boss and the relationship may have been formal or informal. Recognize your mentor's contribution to your career by nominating them for the AMWA Exceptional Mentor award. A few paragraphs is all that is needed and your mentor will receive a letter and certificate from AMWA. Mentors will be recognized at the AMWA Annual Meeting. Any AMWA member may nominate a mentor. The nominee need not be an AMWA member.

Forms to submit your 2013 nominations are available below. Recipients will be recognized during the spring of 2013 at AMWA's Annual Meeting in New York City.

Residents Physicians also have a mentor award for residents only. While a resident can receive the AMWA Exceptional Mentor Award described above, the AMWA Resident Division created an additional Resident Mentor Award. Nominate a woman that has made a difference in your life today!
