Global Mentoring Program

Global Mentoring Program Information and Signup Session

This event will take place on Zoom
Wednesday, September 30, 2020 - 18:00

AUP students are invited and highly encouraged to participate in AUP’s Global Mentoring Program, organized by the Alumni Affairs Office and the Careers Team at ACE. The AUP Global Mentoring program gives students the opportunity to get to know and network with an AUP alum, and obtain support in areas such as how to make the most of your time at AUP, setting and achieving your goals,  identifying potential careers, and planning for life after graduation.  

In order to sign up for this program, you must attend a mandatory online information session/ workshop. Please RSVP on AUP Engage to attend the session on Wednesday, September 30 at 18:00 CEST, and you will receive the event link via email.

You will be able to formally sign up for the program and request an alumni mentor during this online session. You will learn more about how the program works, and the Careers team will work with you to clarify your goals so that you get the most out the program.

One more session (also posted on AUP Engage) will be offered on: 

  • Tuesday, October 6 at 18:00 CEST

If you are unable to attend any of the sessions offered, please email careersataup.edu for an appointment. Eligible students must have at least have sophomore standing and be enrolled as degree-seeking students (either undergraduate or graduate).

 

More information  
  • Once you have attended a virtual information session and signed up, you will be introduced to your mentor via email. All meetings between mentors and mentees this semester will be held virtually, and your mentor could be located anywhere in the world.  
  • We recommend that you and your mentor meet three to five times during the semester for 30 to 60 minutes at a time. This time frame is flexible, and it's up to you and your mentor to determine what works best.  
  • We will also share various resources to help you get the most out of your time with your mentor throughout the semester, including conversation prompts, tips and much more.  
  • Eligible students must have at least sophomore standing (i.e., have earned at least 16 credits if undergraduates) and be enrolled as degree-seeking students (either undergraduate or graduate). 
  • Save the date for the online virtual program kickoff on Thursday October 15! Attendance is not mandatory, as you will be interacting with your mentor on a one-on-one basis either in-person or virtually, but this event is a great way to connect with fellow mentees and other mentors and participate in the AUP mentoring community.
