Peer Mentoring Program

THE MBSSA PEER MENTORING PROGRAM IS OPEN THIS SEMESTER 2 2021!

This program is designed as a bridge to connect current students with incoming students and eventually help them transit into life at MBS. Given current circumstances, we have designed the program to be a blend of online and in person weekly activities such that all can be accessed even if you’re not here in Melbourne with us! Incoming students (mentees) will have the chance to learn from current students (mentors) and develop their own understanding of MBS life, study tips, career development opportunities and many more. For current students, this program allows them to reflect back on their study experience in MBS and develop their mentoring skills.

Additionally, mentors receive a Certificate of Appreciation and will be able to direct dedicated hours towards the Leadership in Communities Award.
