SUMMARY:Working Remotely: Onboarding and Mentoring
DESCRIPTION:State of the Practice Talk\n\nWorking Remotely: Onboarding and
  Mentoring\n\nSankaran\n\nThe year 2020 began with the swift and unprecede
 nted spread of a global pandemic, COVID-19. Social distancing practices, a
 mong other measures, have been adopted worldwide toward slowing down the s
 pread of the pandemic until a vaccination is realized. During this same ti
 me we have continued with the hiring and on-boarding of new hires and the 
 education of students, and students have participated in internships virtu
 ally, over the Internet and telephony.  Based on our current understanding
  of the disease and the evolution of vaccines and therapeutics, it is pred
 icted that we may have to continue in this mode of operation for the fores
 eeable future. Motivated by what is now being called the "new normal'' and
  stemming from participation as a panelist on an "ECP Virtual Onboarding a
 nd Mentoring" panel, this talk will focus on these key challenges, discuss
  ideas and present various approaches and their \nefficacy in the new tele
 commuting environment.\n\nTag: Best Practices\n\nRegistration Category: Te
