Mentee Involvement
Mentees who are interested in participating in the Career Mentoring program are required to register. In order to do this students must complete the Career Mentoring Student Registration Form (see below in 'How to Register').
The objective of the orientation session will be for students to demonstrate a thorough understanding of the mentor and mentee's roles and responsibilities under the program. Opportunities will be provided to ask further questions.
As mentee, you will be required to have contact with your mentor approximately twice a month. We do encourage you to meet face-to-face with your mentor at least three times during the mentoring period, however, on occasions it may be more convenient to make contact by telephone or via email.
We invite our students to register for the program and discover for themselves the opportunities and benefits that Career Mentoring provides.
How to register
Registrations are now closed. Registrations will open in Semester 1 2010.
