Become a Mentee
Looking to build relationships and have someone to talk to about your transition to ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ? Sign up to find your mentor!
ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ International Mentorship Program
ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ International (DCI) Mentorship Program helps to welcome and orient new international students to ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ. New international students will have the opportunity to be matched and connected with returning senior students called Student Mentors. Student Mentors will help guide mentees by sharing experiences, providing social connection and important student life information.
Mentors assist new students by answering questions about ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ or re-directing them to contact essential ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ services, including medical insurance, how to navigate the website, how to find textbooks and tips on preparing to study at Douglas.
Objectives
Create early connections from mentor to mentee and provide new international students the support and guidance they need to transition to Canada, BC, and ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ.
- Help orient students to ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ services.
- Support a peer-to-peer network between new students.
- Reduce the feelings of loneliness and isolation among new students.
- Increase intercultural communication skills and competency for all participants.
