How does it work?
This innovative program is ONLINE and allows for any Indigenous post-secondary student to participate in the mentorship program from anywhere in Canada. Protégés simply fill in an online form that details who they are, what school they attend, and what their field of study is. Students will be matched to the most suitable Mentor who has a shared field of work to the student’s program of studies. The foundation of the program is the mentor-protégé relationship and the ongoing connections that grow this relationship. Mentors and Protégés each go through this matching process to ensure the mentor can provide a personalized and tailored approach for their protégé.
Who is eligible?
While Influence seeks to be as inclusive as possible, there are some eligibility requirements to become a protégé. You must be:
• Indigenous: This includes those of First Nations, Métis, Inuit and Non-Status descent.
• Student: Candidates must be enrolled in post-secondary education during the time of the internship.
What is the commitment?
The official length of each mentoring match is approximately one year. This provides enough time for a significant impact on the lives of both participants. However, it is the hope of Influence that the mentor/protégé relationships created through this program will become long-term connections that are rewarding for both people.
