Best work Readiness |
The University of Pretoria introduced the UP Mentorship Programme in 2019, initially involving under 30 mentees and mentors spanning across 2 faculties. Since then, this platform has undergone remarkable evolution and expansion. Presently, it plays a pivotal role in supporting over 1400 students as mentees, while boasting an impressive pool of more than 1700 mentors within its database. Focused on cultivating student growth, the Career Services Mentorship programme is a cornerstone of this initiative. Aimed primarily at final year students, it is designed to provide them with invaluable insights into the practical realities of the professional landscape. The dedicated Career Service Team facilitates connections between students and industry experts, thereby ensuring a meaningful exposure to the dynamic world of work. Through a structured approach, students engage with their mentors across four informative sessions, enabling them to gain a comprehensive understanding of their chosen career paths and fostering a smoother transition from academia to the professional sphere. |
