The initial application process for Mentor-Protégé CoP will begin on the last day of the Federal Funding Bootcamp and end two weeks before the start of each Mentor-Protégé CoP.

Following each Federal Funding Bootcamp, CoPs will be offered quarterly. The next CoP will take place from Wednesday, September 4, 2024 - Wednesday, November 13, 2024, and will focus on Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSIs). Future CoPs will focus on other Minority Colleges, Universities, and Community Colleges (MCU-CCs) and organizations. CoP participants will meet virtually every other week for a total of six 90-minute sessions.
