The OBA Alumni Mentoring Program is designed to connect alumni, approaching the completion of university or in the beginning stages of a career, with older and well-established alumni in various career disciplines. The program's strategy is to provide the younger graduates with career and lifestyle advice while entering, or seeking to enter, a professional working environment.
Program information
1. We ask that you have some form of communication with your mentor or mentee every month. This can be done in person, over the phone, or using Skype.
2. An OBA Director will be contacting you via email at the 3rd, 6th, 9th, and 12th-month intervals to check in and hear about how the partnership is working.
3. At the end of the year, the School and OBA will send each party a completion survey to receive feedback on how the program was run, if there are any changes you would recommend, and whether your expectations were met.
4. Applications to be a Mentee are limited to those alumni who are in the 3rd or 4th year of post-secondary education, or those who have recently completed post-secondary and who are in the first few years of their careers.
