Alumni Mentoring Program

How it works

The program will run for 12 months with the option to extend pending agreement from both the mentor and mentee. It is expected that the mentor and mentee will meet once per month at minimum (online or in person), there is potential to meet more regularly again pending agreement. ACPE will play a supporting role throughout the program and clearly define expectations at the commencement of the program. In addition, ACPE will also provide templates and resources to assist throughout the program when required.

How to apply

Alumni are welcome to submit multiple applications to partner with multiple mentors, though alumni can only be mentored by one mentor at a time. Mentees will be matched with mentors based on their career goals, skillsets and expectations. To be eligible for the ACPE Alumni Mentoring Program, each prospective mentee will be required to: 

• Nominate which alumni mentor they would like to partner (alumni are welcome to express interest in partnering with multiple Mentors)
