The Emerging Professionals Network (EPNet) seeks both mentors and mentees for the second FeedBack mentorship program this year.

This program aims to:

Provide the structure for meaningful mentorship relationships to take shape
Support the growth of emerging professionals
Encourage design professionals at all stages of their careers to exchange ideas with people at different levels
Empower emerging professionals to be active participants in the act of mentoring

The program connects each mentee with five mentors. Throughout the five-month program, each mentor-mentee match will meet once. At the end of five months, you will have begun a relationship with one, a few, or all of the people you’ve met.

Once paired, each mentee should contact their mentors to coordinate a time and a place for their meeting. The setting is up to each pair: lunch, coffee, office visit, or any other casual and appropriate outing that both mentor and mentee agree on (virtual and in-person).

After the program ends, it is up to each participant to build upon the foundation set by the initial meeting.

Time commitment:

One mandatory two-hour kickoff on Wednesday, May 20
One meeting per month, for five months = five meetings total
One two-hour wrap-up event in September

Applicants will be notified of their acceptance the first week of May. All participants must attend the FeedBack Kickoff on Wednesday, May 20. (Tentative locations: BSA or Zoom.)
