Abstract
Positive and inclusive mentoring of undergraduate research students, particularly of students from historically underrepresented groups is critical. The Advancing Inclusive Mentoring (AIM) program was developed to share inclusive mentoring practices with mentors at undergraduate-focused campuses and was assessed across five minority-serving universities. Self-ratings of mentorship skill as very- and exceptionally developed increased by 58% after AIM completion, and 93% of participants indicated they were likely to change their mentoring following AIM. While 93% of mentors rated the AIM program as beneficial, and 88% found most or all six modules pertinent to their mentoring, campus variations existed in perceived benefit (87%-100%) and pertinence (80-97%). These results suggest that AIM is effective training for mentors of undergraduate researchers, including those from historically underrepresented groups.
