Cremes Research Mentorship Program

Welcome to CREMES Research Mentorship Program! Our program, led by Dr. Catherine Kahabuka, aims to nurture and shape Africa's future research talent. Initiated in November 2020, our mission is to empower young researchers with a comprehensive skill set encompassing technical expertise, ethical work practices, professionalism, and essential soft skills. In 2023, we expanded our reach beyond Tanzania and welcomed aspiring researchers from Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Nigeria, and Ethiopia. Our mentees are selected through a rigorous process, targeting passionate individuals committed to a research career. The program's curriculum covers everything from basic data collection to advanced analytical techniques, report writing, proposal development, and scientific writing. It is structured into three progressive career stages: Research Assistant, Junior Research Consultant, and Senior Research Consultant. Our 2023 addition, the Internship Program, offers practical experience for those aiming to become research consultants or start their own research firms. This hands-on phase is critical for developing consulting skills and client management expertise. Funded by CREMES International's research activities, the mentorship program is offered free of charge to our mentees. Are you interested in embarking on a journey of research excellence with us?
