Welcome to the Mentor Program!
Quite possibly the most rewarding professional relationship a PRSSA member can have is with an engaging and committed mentor. If you are eligible, we will pair you with a local professional according to your career interests, objectives and experience.
Free of the trappings of an internship, PRSSA mentees gain valuable career insight and practical industry knowledge through candid, yet professional interaction with a local practitioner. Similarly, careerists reinforce basic competency and leadership skills without the demands and scrutiny of actual commerce.
This program is where the rubber meets the road. It will require you to take initiative, communicate, commit, and above all, uphold yourself to high standards of professionalism. But it builds futures and relationships between students and professionals and delivers when you become the professional.
This reciprocity is at the heart of what we do.
We invite you to take on a mentor and grow your future.
