There have been 11 applications so far to SEED’s 4-Site Engineering
mentoring term. Applications are due between 1-14 March from
Bangalore, Beijing, Prague, and St. Petersburg. So far, there
have been:
- 3 applications from Bangalore, India
- 6 from Beijing, China
- 2 from St. Petersburg, Russia
- 0 from Prague, Czech Republic
I have already given two in-person presentations here in Bangalore
plus one worldwide call-in meeting. There is another call-in meeting
on 13 March. Details about the
calls and the presentation materials are on the 4-Site web page.
Participation in these meetings and calls is not mandatory for
applicants and no one keeps track of who attends.
In parallel with the 4-Site term application period, I am also continuing
to match two very senior terms: SEED-2 (for alumni SEED participants who wanted a subsequent mentoring partnership), and the Distinguished Engineer (DE) term. The DE term is for a group of newly promoted DEs to work with more experienced DEs.
8 of the eleven new Distinguished Engineers have now been matched with DE-mentors.
7 of the ten SEED-2 alumni participants have also been matched with mentors.
