RBHS Faculty AEM Program

Advance, Engage, and, Mentor

The AEM Faculty Development Program is designed to build a community of practice, engage diverse faculty, foster leadership skills, provide mentoring, and expand networking opportunities for diverse faculty at RBHS. It also provides an affinity space for courageous dialogue. The overall aim of the program is to nurture diverse future leaders at RBHS and foster a sense of belonging and professional growth for the cohort. In Fall 2020, the pilot program was launched.
