MENTOR
Becoming a mentor means sharing your experience, opening doors, and actively contributing to a more inclusive professional world.
Joining our mentoring programme is about more than guiding a student or job seeker from a diverse background — it’s a human adventure rooted in trust, empathy, and authenticity.
As a mentor, you play a key role in helping your mentee overcome challenges, develop their skills, and gain confidence. Through inspiring exchanges, you’ll offer your experience, your insights, and your vision of the professional world.
But mentorship is a win-win experience: by opening yourself to diversity, you’ll learn just as much from your mentee. Every journey and every exchange becomes a source of mutual growth and inspiration.
Make a difference — join the mentoring programme and discover a unique and rewarding human experience.
Eligibility criteria
Minimum of 4–5 years of professional experience
Active listening and kindness
Availability for a 6–12 month commitment
Speak French, Dutch, or English
Why become a mentor ?
Mentorship is much more than a professional exchange.
Every duo is a meeting between two individuals, each with their own story and unique background. These human connections create bonds of trust and generate powerful, transformational experiences.
Share your experience
As a mentor, you help mentees build their professional projects by offering your lived experience and practical insight into the world of work.
Support emerging talent
By mentoring individuals from diverse and underrepresented backgrounds, you actively contribute to building a more inclusive and fair job market.
Strengthen your social impact
Your mentorship leaves a meaningful and lasting mark on your mentee’s life and career. You play a vital role in their personal growth and contribute to a more equitable society.

I met a highly intelligent student, self-driven with ambitions to make a difference for others, yet uncertain about his future. Helping him find his path, I walk part of the journey beside him – an incredibly enriching experience.

It has been a deeply rewarding experience to mentor an individual whose enthusiasm and commitment to personal growth have matched the investment of my time and knowledge. Witnessing their remarkable development and the strides they've made professionally has affirmed the value of sharing expertise and fostering talent. The mentorship journey has not only been a chance to guide a promising individual but also a fulfilling opportunity to contribute meaningfully to their success and the broader professional community.

You feel truly useful. I never had someone like this (a mentor) when I was in that position myself, and I now see how invaluable it is for students to learn from someone who already knows the professional world!
