Mentor a Normandale student
The mentor program is an excellent opportunity for students to connect with professionals working in their areas of career interest. Through this relationship students can get an inside view of how various companies and organizations work, how professionals balance life and career, and receive suggestions on how to better prepare for the working world.
Applications for the 2008-2009 Mentor Program will be available in August. In order to be eligible for the Mentor Program, students must be in good academic standing. All students are invited to apply.
Students are matched with mentors during the fall of each year. Mentors can complete a volunteer form at any time and will be considered for the following academic year.
Talk about your career
Informational Interview - Answer student questions about your career area, either on the phone, via e-mail or in person.
Classroom Speaking - Share your professional perspective at the request of a faculty member.
Panel Discussions - Sit on a panel with other professionals to share your perspective on topics related to career planning or your professional field.
Alumni and friends are invited to volunteer for any of these opportunities. Simply fill out the online volunteer form and someone from the alumni office will be in touch.
