Mentoring is a “process in which an experienced individual helps another person develop his or her goals and skills through a series of time-limited, confidential, one-on-one conversations and other learning activities.”
AUSIT’s Mentoring Program (MP) is currently offering two valid terms per year, with term 1 between 1 March and 30 June, and term 2 between 1 August and 30 November.
Applications are now open for Term 2, 2021. Please apply by 11 July 2021 to secure your spot.
Late application received by 31 July 2021 may be accepted subject to capacity.

Mentoring meetings can be face-to-face, via telephone, email or Skype. We recommend that you meet at least twice in the five-month period.
AUSIT wishes you all the best for your mentoring experience, and we look forward to receiving your feedback at mentoring@ausit.org
Mentor applications are accepted all year around. The average processing time is three to four weeks. However, AUSIT may prioritise certain applications based on mentee applications. A mentor will need to lodge the application by 11 July to ensure participation in Term 2, 2021. If a mentor lodges an application after 11 July 2021, it’s very likely that their participation will be postponed to the the next term.
Mentors will need to follow the term system as part of the MP.
