Mentoring Program Bridge 101
December 23, 2010
The Education and Career Development Council of Canadian Tamil Youth Alliance (CTYA) is proud to announce our Mentoring Program, Bridge 101. The Mentoring program aims to help students have a successful transition from high school to post-secondary education, beginning with the decision process. Bridge 101 is being coordinated by Education and Career Development Council in partnership with the Tamil Student Associations from the following universities and colleges: Guelph/Humber, Queens University, U of T Mississauga Campus, U of T – St George Campus, Waterloo University, Wilfred Laurier University and York University.
Students seeking assistance can now submit their requests for mentors. As the deadline for University/College applications are quickly approaching, those who may still need guidance applying to an institution can benefit greatly from speaking with a mentor who has undergone similar experiences. Once your application is received, Bridge 101 Coordinators will forward your requests to the respective TSAs and arrange for a mentor. After the mentor is arranged the mentee will be able to contact the mentor through email or Skype in order to clarify doubts regarding their academics. Bridge 101 will also be working towards group mentoring programs in the near future.
Your questions can be sent to Bridge 101 through the following link: http://ctya.org/mentors. The process to send in your questions is fairly simple. Please try to make your questions as specific as possible in order to ensure that you are responded to accordingly.
For those interested in submitting an application request for a mentor, please remember to include your name, the name and location of the school you are currently attending, your contact information (address, email, phone number), and universities and programs you are interested in.
Together with the Tamil Students Associations at participating Universities and Colleges, Bridge 101 plans to help youth achieve their career goals in their desired field of study.
