Program structure

Our mentorship program is designed to be flexible and tailored to each mentee's needs, with a structured approach that evolves over time, focusing on personal growth, skill development, and practical application.

Getting Started (Week 1-2)
The journey begins with an introduction phase where you'll meet your mentee, understand their goals, and set expectations. During this time, you'll establish a regular meeting schedule and discuss the objectives for your mentorship, ensuring you're both aligned on what you want to achieve.
Main Mentorship Period (Ongoing)
In this phase, you'll engage in regular sessions, providing valuable feedback, guidance, and support as your mentee progresses. Whether it's solving technical challenges, refining skills, or gaining new insights, you'll help them stay on track with practical learning and development.
Capstone Project and Final Support (Last Weeks)
In the concluding weeks, you'll assist your mentee in synthesizing their knowledge into a capstone project. As a mentor, you'll offer direction, review their work, and ensure they're on the right path to successfully completing the project, showcasing all they've learned and achieved throughout the mentorship.
