Mentor/Mentee Program Launched
The AIA launched “Mentoring: A Journey in Collaborative Learning,”
a new online service designed to match mentors with mentees based
on personal profiles capturing specific interests, experience, and
expertise, on February 14. The program will assist in facilitating
AIA members’ personal and career development through relationships
with role models who share their interests. The program strives
to serve AIA members through positive social, professional, and
academic networking and occupational guidance. For an annual fee
of $50, mentors and mentees will find partners to help them achieve
both personal and professional goals. Click here and enter “AIA
Architect” as the organization code for more information.
