2019-2020 Mentor Program
Organized by the Young Planners Group
The APA-MN Chapter’s Young Planners Group is kicked off its 3rd annual Mentor Program! The first event was Speed Networking event hosted by WSB on Thursday, October 10, 2019.
For participating mentors, this is an exciting opportunity to volunteer your time giving back to the planning community and provide young professional planners with the skills they cannot learn in school. For participating mentees, this is a casual format to meet new professionals and learn industry knowledge in both group and one-on-one settings. Both groups will also gain AICP CM credits and participate in fun events sponsored by the Young Planners Group during the mentor program.

We are asking for participants to apply who are willing to contribute up to 10 hours of their time from October 2019 to April 2020 by attending up to three planned events and up to three individual meetings with your mentor/mentee. Please consider this exciting opportunity!
