The mentorship series is a 6 week program where worthy mentors will train mentees who apply via the EduGrant platform. The session will be held virtually and have mentors deliver resources, give assignments/tasks to their mentees and both parties meet for a review session once a week.
At the end of the program, mentees would gain motivational and inspirational insights and be more confident towards achieving their career goals.
