The 2026 ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ Women's Network (QWN) Mentorship Program applications are now open! The deadline is approaching this January 16, 2026.
How does the program work?
As a mentee, you are responsible for setting up meetings with your Mentor, bringing topics or questions to discuss and following up as required. Our mentors are great resources for you to access and to keep them coming back, we want to minimize the amount of extra work they need to do to provide this great opportunity to the members of the ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½ Women's Network.
Mentorship Timeline Commitment
The mentorship program runs for approximately 6 months (starting in February and running until approximately July). During this time, you and your mentor will decide on the meeting structure that works best for both of you, meeting regularly within this time frame with a commitment of approximately 1 hour per month. In addition to regular mentor meetings, mentees will have the opportunity to engage in reflection and goal setting activities with the other mentees enrolled in the program through meetings with the organizing committee.

How will I know if I've been assigned a mentor?
While we would love to accept every applicant, filling out the application does not guarantee a spot in the QWN Mentorship Program. To ensure that we have enough mentors for applicants we will be informing you of your application status by the end of January so keep an eye on your email inbox!
Do you have questions about the program or application process? We would be happy to help you - simply contact us at qwn@queensu.ca.
Best of luck!
