Mentoring

Become a mentor

Are you an ECU graduate eager to impart your knowledge and engage with fellow alumni and current students?

Inspired to mentor and make a meaningful difference? Join us in guiding the next generation of professionals and enrich your own perspective through mentoring.

By becoming an alumni mentor you will be helping to shape emerging professionals as well as developing your own coaching and leadership skills.

Become a mentee

Are you a new graduate in search of a mentor?

If you've completed your studies at ECU within the past two years and are seeking assistance and direction in your career path, you qualify for our program.

Your mentor will guide you in exploring career options, building professional networks, improving job readiness, and providing unique insights into your chosen field.

Hear from mentoring program participants

What's involved?

Our mentoring program welcomes graduates from all fields and levels of experience. Don’t worry if you’re new to mentoring – we provide complete support and training to guide you through the process.

Recent ECU graduates (within the last two years) also have the opportunity to join as mentees. This is a fantastic chance for new alumni to shape their career paths and benefit from the guidance of a more seasoned ECU graduate.

There is not a huge time commitment expected, you will work with your mentor or mentee to decide on how often you will connect, ensuring your level of commitment works for both of you. You can participate from wherever you are, virtual meetings are okay!

New for 2024

Since the program was established in 2014, hundreds of students have gained valuable support, encouragement, and insights from alumni mentors.

To celebrate the 10-year anniversary we are excited to broaden our mentoring scope to encompass recent graduates. Now, alumni mentors have the opportunity to mentor a current student, a recent graduate, or even both.

This expansion also means recent graduates now have the opportunity to be mentees, receiving guidance and support as they navigate their early career paths.

Interested in taking part?

Applications for 2024 are now closed. If you are interested in applying in 2025 email the Alumni Relations team with your expression of interest to be a mentor or mentee.
