NPA Values
The NPA believes that:
-
Postdocs make invaluable contributions to the research enterprise.
-
Postdocs share personal responsibility for the progression and outcomes of their careers.
-
Inequities within the postdoctoral community should be rectified to the maximum extent practicable, while recognizing the unique needs of each stakeholder.
-
The U.S. research community should make every effort to attract the best and the brightest men and women from all groups, including international scholars, under-represented minorities, and persons with disabilities.
The NPA values:
-
Grassroots participation in the decision-making process, both internally and externally.
-
Professional satisfaction and meaningful career opportunities for postdoctoral scholars, which recognize the importance of balancing work and personal needs.
-
Collaboration and dialogue to achieve consensus among all stakeholders on the best methods for addressing issues and obtaining desired outcomes for the postdoctoral community.
-
Objective data to inform critical decision-making.
