Victoria Commuter Connections Program
Victoria College is starting a Commuter Mentorship Program next year - the Victoria Commuter Connections Program (VCCC) - and we are looking for mentors!
Program Description:
VCCC has been created to address the challenges that arise for students making the transition from high school to university studies. The program is designed to guide students in their efforts to achieve their academic, social and personal goals as a new university student.
The program will support the unique needs of first year commuter students and will provide participants with the opportunity to learn and grow through guidance, communication and leadership of a supportive community.
The mentors will serve as an anchor and a guide to the mentees; helping the mentees overcome the challenges of first year with careful guidance and positive support. Mentors help students by listening, providing feedback, providing information and support, encouraging and inspiring, and sharing relevant knowledge.
Mentors will be paired up and assigned a group of 4-5 mentees in the same area of residence and general area of study. Mentor pairs will be assigned to one commuter don who will be their support.
The commitment of being a mentor is 5-10 hours a month starting in September 2012.
As a mentor you will be expected to:
- Have a CGPA of +2.0
- Submit an application Thursday, March 22, 2012
- Attend the Mentor Hiring Carousel on Friday, March 23 or Saturday, March 24
- Attend New Leader Day on Saturday, March 31, 2012
- Attend Mentor Training on Friday, September 14, 2012
