The Student-Alumni Mentoring Program provides students with encouragement and support in their future professional careers by pairing them with experienced alumni mentors.
The Mentoring Program runs over approximately 8 weeks with the total commitment time adding up to about 11 hours. This includes application to the program, meeting preparation and approximately 6-7 hours of actual mentoring with the student. Ultimately, the time and commitment required can be decided between you and your mentee. Mentoring can be facilitated over the phone, in person or using an online meeting tool such as Skype, Zoom or Google Meets.
For more information about the program, see the Student-Alumni Mentoring Manual. You will be provided with plenty of guidance from the University before and during the program but if you would like an idea of the Mentoring requirements you can access our Mentoring Guidelines.
If you are interested in applying to be a Mentor for Semester One 2023, please fill out the Expression of Interest form here.
If you find yourself with questions the UC alumni team is always available to provide support and can be reached at alumni@canberra.edu.au.
When balancing work, life and study, university students may find themselves struggling to afford essential items. To help them get through this with minimal impact on their study, UCX has developed a service called the Food Pantry, that provides access to non-perishable food and other essential items. The Food Pantry is always welcoming of volunteers so if assisting with this interests you, please reach out to the Food Pantry.
