About the Program
The Mentorship Program runs from September through April and uses a cohort model—bringing together a small group of mentors and mentees to encourage collaboration, diverse perspectives, and shared learning. Throughout the program, participants take part in cohort discussions, agency tours, workshops, social events, and a portfolio review, all designed to build connections and prepare mentees for careers in advertising.
Mentors are advertising professionals with at least five years of industry experience who are eager to share their knowledge and guidance. They help mentees better understand roles, responsibilities, and career opportunities in advertising while offering valuable insights into navigating the industry.
