E3 CaseLab Mentoring Program

Project Overview: The E3 CaseLab Mentoring Program is a mentee-driven program; the results of this program are dependent on what each mentee puts into it.

Program Vision:. E3 CaseLab advances the development of thoughtful, skilled, and ethical sports RDs through guided, case-based learning.
Through structured pre-work, guided case discussion, and mentorship from experienced practitioners, participants deepen their clinical reasoning, strengthen evidence-informed practice and processes, and evolve their professional confidence and identity.
