Speed Mentoring: College and Careers Night

Tuesday, November 20, 2018

I didn’t want to go but I was recommended or forced by the hospital. I hated my counsellor at first but now it’s like she is my friend- like a second mom. I can text her if I need her.
On Tuesday, December 4th from 6:30pm - 8:30pm, the Nexus Youth Centre will be hosting a speed mentoring event for youth ages 14 - 24 years old. This is a free event and a great opportunity for youth to connect with working professionals to ask questions related to post-secondary education/training and future career paths.

Attendees will have the opportunity to meet ​multiple mentors in a "speed-dating" set-up. In small groups of 2-3 people, youth will spend 10-15 minutes with each mentor at a time, allowing for opportunities to personally connect and network with local leaders in a variety of fields, including:
  • Medicine
  • Law
  • Engineering
  • Finance
  • Entrepreneurship
  • Politics
  • Event management
  • Customer service
  • And more!

Opportunities for internships and ongoing mentorship will also be available to those who are interested.
