Mentorship program 2023: register as mentee!

As previously announced, Women+ in Concentrated Solar is starting a mentorship program for women and other underrepresented gender identities in the concentrated solar sector, to help our mentees grow as professionals.

We have gathered a database of possible mentors for mentees to choose from. The program is now open to mentees registration. If you or one of your collaborators wish to become one of our 2023 mentees, please fill out the form below by November 30. You will be asked to choose your preferred mentors, so be sure to consult our mentor database beforehand. Mentees are also invited to join our expert database of W+CS members.

N.B. Our mentors of underrepresented gender identities can also become mentees.

The 2023 program will last four months, with at least one virtual meeting per month (higher frequency can be decided at the discretion of paired mentors and mentees).

Mentees will be matched with mentors according to their respective areas of expertise and professional needs. Mentees and mentor placements will be done on a first-come, first-served basis. Connections will be made by December 8, and a kick-off meeting is planned on December 14 @ 6 pm CET to give you more details about how to proceed.

If you are interested in becoming a mentee, please answer the questionnaire below.

Women+ in Concentrated Solar is starting a mentorship program for women and other underrepresented genders in the concentrated solar sector, to help our mentees grow as professionals.

In a first step, we are looking for mentors (all gender identities welcome).

Mentors will be expected to meet with their mentee(s) once a month for 4 months.

If you are interested in becoming a mentor:

Option 1. You are already registered on our website and expert database

We need to know about your professional situation and domains of expertise, so please don’t forget to update your profile if you haven’t already!

You can then answer the questionnaire below. We only need you to answer a few complementary questions (by clicking “Yes” to the first question, you will skip to the last section).
