What is the Mentor Match Program?

How Does It Work?

Log into Engage, WIT's members-only site, and click Mentor Match.
Complete your member profile.
Enroll as a Mentor or Mentee (or both!).
Select your demographics and preferences (topics, venue, specialties, career stage and start/end date).
Use the Mentor Program Directory to input your search criteria.
The program will connect you with matches based off of your demographics and topics of interest.
Click on the member's name that you're interested in establishing a connection with. The link will bring you to their profile page. Look around. If you think it's a desired match, look under their profile image for the Mentor Match badge, which when clicked will allow you to request a connection.

What's the Duration of the Mentorship Relationship?

It's up to you and your mentor/mentee! You decide the start and end dates.

How Can I Find the Right Match?

When enrolling, you'll provide information on desired topics, venue, specialties, career stage and start/end date. The more information you provide, the easier it will be to make the best match. Then using the Mentor Program Directory, you'll input your search criteria. Start by selecting the topic(s) of interest which include:
• Career Development
• Work/ Life Balance
• Starting my Own Business

What is the Engage Platform?
