How will contact be made?
To indicate your interest in joining a group or entering into a mentoring partnership, click the “Contact” button to the right of the relevant posting. WILMA will then send an automated message to the selected party, indicating that contact has been requested, and telling her the name, affiliation, and email address of the person initiating the contact (yours). Your prospective partner or group organizer will respond directly to you, saying whether or not she is able to accept your request. Please note that there are many reasons why a given participant might not be able to accept an invitation to enter into a particular mentoring partnership, and this shouldn’t be taken personally by someone who is turned down. Also note that the first direct contact between the parties is made not by the initiator, but by the woman invited. In the reverse situation, where someone selects you as a potential mentoring partner, please note that they will not (or at least should not!) contact you directl
