2022 A&WMA-LMSS Mentorship Program - Deadline Extended

Posted by [email protected] on Jun. 3, 2022     

Calling all Young Professionals!

If you haven’t already signed up, you are in luck!  We’re extending the deadline to June 10th to sign up for the mentor program.

If you are a young professional (35 years or younger), this program is great for your professional development. We have a terrific roster of mentors including environmental legal counsel, EHS professionals, business development specialists, and more. You will be paired with a more senior practitioner mentor, so you will have a new professional friend that can help you develop and advance in your career. (Got a problem or a question and don’t want to ask your boss? Call your mentor for advice instead!)

We will do our best to match you with a mentorship partner who is uniquely suited to you. The program will run from July 2022 to December 2022. Mentors and mentees are asked to meet (virtually or in-person, if you are comfortable) at least once a month, but we encourage you to meet or talk/text/email (based on your preferred communications) more frequently if you can.

Each month, you’ll receive a suggested topic and/or project covering an area of career development. For example:

  • Business Development: Work with your mentor to publish a blog or article on a new development in your field and discuss methods to build client relationships
  • Employment Advice: Review your resume with your mentor for feedback on how to standout to potential employers
  • Networking: Attend a professional event, conference or seminar with your mentor, or discuss with your mentor ways in which to improve your Linkedin profile

Are you interested? We hope you will join us! Please sign up using the survey link below. We hope to see you in 2022!

You must be a member of the Lake Michigan States Section to participate. Local Young Professional Associate membership is $40 or $20 for students. Sign up can be done on the website.
