The Diversity Workshop and Mentoring Program will be held July 28-31, 2019 at the Joint Statistical Meetings (JSM) at the Colorado Convention Center.

The ultimate objective of this workshop is to foster enduring mentoring relationships and prepare statisticians and data scientists of diverse backgrounds for career success.The program will include information sessions, small group discussions and one-on-one meetings of mentor/mentee pairs during the conference. The overarching theme for the sessions is Developing Leaders, Growing Community, and Ensuring a Diverse Profession. Participants will have an opportunity to participate in parallel sessions on topics such as Career Success: Tips and Traps, Graduate School Success, Effective Presentation Skills, Strategic Networking, and Developing Successful Mentoring Relationships. The program will conclude with a Keynote address and a 100th Birthday Celebration of David Blackwell.
