Our Programme
You made it here! You’re literally steps away from deciding on navigating your academics and career with better clarity and confidence. We’re excited for you and proud of you.
Your first session with your mentor is for you both to get to know each other. Remember, there is no pressure to have your academic/career journey figured out, your sessions will be a safe space.
This session will give you the opportunity to discuss your interests with your mentor and receive advice and pointers. You can also ask them what their interests are/were and how these have guided their academic/career decisions.
As the session title implies, here, you will receive some support towards plotting your path to academic improvement and career success. Sometimes, all we need is a listening ear, the simplest questions and encouragement to propel us towards purpose. No doubt, this session will be invaluable.
Heard the quote, 'Talent will get you in the door, but character will keep you in the room'? In this session, you will discuss with your mentor about a critical part of your academic and career success, your character.
While you may have the interest, skills and know how to get to where you want to, confidence is key. Here, you will speak about the need for confidence to walk your path and impact lives and systems with your abilities and personality.
Here, you will speak with your mentor about connecting with people, learning about people and forming mutually beneficial, professional and social relationships. If this does not come naturally for you, don't worry at all, we'll guide you from where you are. Some of our mentors can relate!
Here, you and your mentor will assess your progress and conclude mentorship.

Testimonials
The mentorship sessions were helpful, I honestly got more than I expected, and I feel my life has improved in how I present myself, what I believe about myself and how I can make a difference.
I gained insight on different career paths and courses. I recognized my weaknesses and strengths, which further allowed me to better understand myself. The fact that I could build a friendly relationship with my mentor improved my experience. She was extremely positive and motivational.
The Student’s Friend was a nice shift in dynamic. I felt a form of motivation outside my unit. It gave me the realisation that my goals aren’t unattainable, I just needed to try and see what panned out, and I could reevaluate and follow through simultaneously. I was able to take my business seriously and expand on it. I established a project management consultancy that received 3 opportunities in the space of 6 months. This is just one of many things I discussed with my mentor and I look forward to refocusing and expanding on them.
