The objective of our international mentorship program is to provide opportunities for alumni and current students of the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto to connect and build their respective networks. The OISE Mentorship Program offers alumni from across professions, provinces and countries and current graduate students of the Ontario Institute for Studies in Educ
ation of the University of Toronto a structured mentorship experience delivered on an annual basis. We recognize that the knowledge, training and transferable skill-sets developed by OISE alumni have carried them to all corners of the globe and to a myriad of professions. Ranging from positions in government and health care, to classrooms and boardrooms, our 100,000 alumni have distinguished themselves around the world, and have much to offer Master's and PhD students interested in similar career paths. By bringing parties into conversation, the Mentorship Program encourages current students to gain an appreciation for what will be expected of them in respective industries post-graduation. Reciprocally, alumni can enrich their networking opportunities by connecting with these up-and-coming professionals while making a significant contribution to OISE that goes beyond traditional financial donations. In addition to having the satisfaction of knowing that they have advised and encouraged OISE students, alumni may also benefit by enhancing their own knowledge and curriculum vitae.
