A Mentor is an experienced individual who provides guidance and support to another person.  They are often older and wiser with established credibility and a track record of success in their respective fields.

What is a Mentee?
A Mentee is an individual who receives guidance and support from a more experienced and/or knowledgeable person.
Mentee Application

This is a great opportunity for those with a wide breadth of knowledge and experience to share that with their junior counterparts.  Mentors are not meant to be teacher’s or coach’s but rather a trusted advisor offering insight, encouragement and constructive feedback.  For the Mentee this provides a resource that you can lean into when facing challenging situations and help fill up that toolbox so that when a difficult situation presents itself you will be well equipped to respond.

Deadline for submission is December 20, 2024, for more information regarding this program please feel free to call, 604-392-1411 or email, unionoffice@cupe411.ca and we would be more than happy to answer any questions or address any concerns that you may have.

In Solidarity,
