Dear Applicant,
Thank you for your interest in becoming a mentor in the EYP Mentorship Programme 2024. The application is designed to help us pair with you a mentee to whom you will be able to provide support based on your specific field and/or experiences. So, please be as open as you can and share with us any details that are relevant to the guidance you wish to offer.
Reminder: A mentor is an EYP Alum.
They will support an active EYPer who is facing obstacles in their professional
journey. The mentor will get an idea of the mentee’s challenges and offer
advice which may help them to overcome these obstacles. This may mean
recommending some specific hard skills to improve which will help the mentee to
stand out in the pair’s chosen field. Alternatively, a mentor may share their
methods for facing challenges specific to the profession which the mentee is
hoping to pursue. Mentors do not need specific qualifications or
accomplishments. Rather, they must be eager to share the experiences which they
do have in a way that can help someone who is new to the world they work in.
If you have any questions regarding the application process or the programme as a whole, please feel free to reach out via alumni@eyp.org.
Happy applying!
