Abstract
Nine women faculty, who are members of a global mentoring network, collaboratively designed a professional development project to explore their mentoring relationships and practices. Using a Learning Management System (LMS), they designed six modules with supplementary learning activities. Project findings highlight the need for a mentoring curriculum that: (a) helps members meet research and publication expectations; (b) addresses network tensions; (c) creates stronger network ties; (d) values each other’s cultural histories and identities; and (e) recognizes their humanity as women academics who must balance life challenges and work expectations.
