Upcoming Events
Join NAWA’s Mentor Program!
The next cohort of NAWA’s Mentor Program is just around the corner! The February 2025 cohort of mentor/mentee partnerships will run from February through June.
We had a successful first cohort that is wrapping up this month. We will share highlights in February of what was accomplished in the first cohort, and how the program is growing and improving.
If you are part of the current cohort, watch your email for specifics about how to close out your current relationships and ensure that you are set up for the next cohort.
We had more mentees than we have mentors in the first cohort. If you know someone who would be a great mentor, please forward this email to them and invite them to be part of the program. They will have an incredible impact on someone else’s career journey!
All NAWA members are invited to be a part of the program as a mentor, a mentee, or both. In your mentor/mentee relationship, you'll have the opportunity to share insights, gain new perspectives, and build lasting relationships. Whether you are an experienced actuary looking to give back or to level-up skills and grow your career, we hope you consider this opportunity.
The registration window is open until January 24 for all new participants.
All mentees and mentors must have a profile in MentorCity to join the upcoming cohort.
If you want to be a mentor or a mentee in the next cohort of the mentor program, please take the following steps now.

MentorCity Information Session:
Once you have joined MentorCity, you can access the training session in the “Resources” tab. This will walk you through setting up profiles and navigating key areas of the MentorCity platform.
In order to make the best matches between mentees and mentors, the profiles are very robust. Please plan to set aside 15-30 minutes to set up your profile.
For planning, here are key dates as we go into the next cohort.
