Did you know CQUni has an online mentoring tool which connects students and alumni (graduates) for one-on-one career conversations?
There are 300 alumni mentors on CQUni Career Connection volunteering their time to mentor students and share career advice.
Because of our global footprint, mentoring sessions are held online – this means you can connect with a mentor no matter your (or their) location.
For students, it’s an easy – and fast - way to connect with CQUni graduates who are working in the industries and professions you will soon be stepping into. After all, who better to get advice from, than someone who has been there before you?
“I had a great interaction with my mentor – they were helpful, kind and willing to share the skills and experience to help me.”
– Student Mentee
For alumni, it’s a flexible and meaningful way to give back and pass on your experiences to students. There’s even a free Coaching and Mentoring for Alumni short course available to polish your skills.
Signing up as a mentor OR mentee is easy!
