IIDA Northland Mentorship Program 2011-2012

Enrollment for the 2011-2012 mentorship program is now full. Please check back in spring 2012 for updates on the 2012-2013 mentorship program.

This program is to help foster mentorship and connections between students and IIDA Professionals and Industry Members. The program is voluntary and the relationship between student and mentor is to develop on its own. IIDA members who participate should be open to sharing their insights and guidance with their student mentees.

Making the Match
Students and mentors are matched based on a student's goals and interests, and a mentor's background and experience as listed on the applications. A mentor is not guaranteed to all students – register early and IIDA Student Members will get priority. Space is limited.

Finding the Match
Be open and honest on the application and we will do our best to find you the right match. Students, be open to what the design professional can offer you and view this as a networking opportunity. Mentors, be honest about your experience and what you have to offer a student mentee.

Notification of a Match
Students – If you are matched with a mentor for this Mentorship Program, you will receive a letter by e-mail at least one week before the kick off program. This e-mail will include an electronic copy of your mentor's application and contact information. Your mentor will also receive a copy of your application.

Students, once you receive information about your mentor, you are encouraged to call or e-mail him/her immediately to introduce yourself and confirm whether or not you will both be able to attend orientation.

If you are not matched, you will be notified by email.
