Everett Community College Mentoring Conference – Registration opens in 10 days!
Hello! The EvCC Conference Planning Team is looking forward to seeing you at this year’s mentoring conference on April 6th. Registration for the conference will open on February 16, and we are still accepting proposals for presentations through that date.
National Mentoring Month is over, but the need for mentoring is greater than ever. According to an article in Forbes magazine, “Many successful people credit one or more mentors who made a big difference in helping them achieve early success.”
Why should you attend this conference? Here are some reviews from past participants:
“Awesome! I love that you are sharing the tools that you have developed!”
“Love the self-mentoring and group mentoring pieces.”
“I especially liked the honesty of the presenters. Thank you for sharing!”
“Accessible and applicable content.”
“Fascinating! Provided real, concrete information that we can use!”
“Inspiring!”
Need more reasons to attend? We have planned some exciting NEW activities for the conference, and our after conference Mentorium, a place to dream, explore and reflect on mentoring, will have a cross-cultural theme this year. Remember that our theme is Relationship Building through Mentoring. What better way to build your legacy than to mentor!
Please feel free to forward this email to your colleagues. The conference is open to students and any group interested in learning more about mentoring.
