Mentor Program

The mentoring program helps students, early professionals, and first-time delegates feel more comfortable and less overwhelmed with their IAIA conference experience. 

The Mentor is an experienced IAIA member with the same interest area as the applicant, or “Mentee.” The Mentor acts as a discussion partner on common topics of interest for the professional development of the Mentee and as a friendly point of contact for guidance and navigation through IAIA (i.e., members, Sections, conference format). It is not intended that the Mentee shadow the assigned Mentor, but rather that they meet at the conference to begin conversation that extends beyond the event. It is hoped that the two will continue communicating on interest areas throughout the year following the conference.

If you are interested in being a Mentor or Mentee, please complete the form by 28 February 2015.
