Mentoring Program
The Australian Water Association’s Mentoring Program aims to pair young water professionals with experienced practitioners across all aspects of the water industry based on participants' preferences in a number of areas. Mentoring can be done face-to-face, online or by phone, so all members are encouraged to participate regardless of their work location. Pairings are made based upon a questionnaire each participant fills out, which asks about skills and experience (for mentors), and career goals and expectations (for mentees). The structure is flexible, and it’s up to the pair to decide how to manage their mentoring relationship.
