how it works

Mentorship 4.0 is no longer accepting applications for mentees and mentors for the 2023 - 2024 cycle. The application period was November 8th-December 8th

  1. Once the application period has closed, ELF and HIMSS will begin matching eligible mentor and mentee candidates. 

  2. Each mentor-mentee pair will be introduced to each other via email at the beginning of the new calendar year. The Mentorship team will reach out to each pair with resources for both the mentee and mentor to ensure a successful connection. 

  3. A kick-off event will commence the mentorship program which is expected to last until ~June 2024. Mentors and mentees are expected to commit to a 6-month relationship, consisting of chat and meetups through each pair’s preferred method of communication. 

  4. The Mentorship team will reach out to each mentor-mentee pair at regular intervals to ensure success. 

  5. A closing event for mentors and mentees will follow upon completion of the mentorship program.

Please note: Due to the high volume of applications, we may not find you a match this mentorship cycle.
