Mentorship and Peer Support

Are you the person that all your friends come to talk to about their problems? Maybe it is time to put your natural abilities to good use. The Peer Support and Mentorship course offer the opportunity for you to learn new skills for being a peer helper and mentor. Peer mentors serve as positive role models for the students, guiding them towards academic and social success. Mentors provide support, advice, encouragement, and even friendship to students. Mentors not only get satisfaction from helping other students, they can also gain important volunteer experience that is so beneficial when applying for post secondary programs and scholarships.
