Eligibility & Requiremets
How It Works
Mentees and mentors are carefully matched for a period of 2 months to ensure the strongest, most mutually beneficial and impactful relationship. The mentor shares his or her knowledge and perspective on certain questions at a minimum of 3 (one hour session) within the 3 months period, thereby fostering the further development of the mentee. At the start of your relationship, we will invite you to participate in a welcome workshop, where you’ll be welcomed into the programme and receive important information about the 3month mentorship. Our team will guide you every step of the way, offering dedicated support to ensure that both mentees and mentors get the most out of their relationships. We’ll monitor progress and check in to see how each mentoring pair is doing at the end of every month. Other than meeting with your mentoring partner regularly, the only requirement is to attend the welcome to complete short feedback forms to reflect on your goals and tell us how we can best support you.
