Virtual Mentor Programming
2023 Virtual Mentor Programming
APPAM is excited to offer virtual opportunities for mentors and mentees this year! These meet-ups will be one-hour Zoom meetings with approximately ten breakout rooms each.
Meet-Up Format:
- Approximately 10 mentors per meet-up, one to two per breakout room.
- Mentors will introduce themselves and their background in the general Zoom meeting room to help you decide whose breakout room you would like to attend.
- Students will be randomly transferred to a breakout room where you can ask questions directly and network. You will then have the option to switch rooms at your request and speak to multiple individuals.
