Coach Mentoring is a year-long program that matches 10th grade students with industry professionals that help support them in envisioning and planning their career and post-secondary journey. A Coach Mentoring Program Coordinator recruits students from their CTE classes and/or based on specific demographic information tailored towards affinity spaces.
Students and mentors participate in facilitated monthly sessions that include topics such as: Informational interviewing, job shadowing, career exploration, resume building, college visits, and more. The program ends with a celebration and presentation of learning that summarizes their takeaways and their future plans based on their experience in the program.
