Dear Mentors and Mentees,

I would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to all those who participated in the Mentoring Moments at the 2024 NCDA Global Conference. Your engagement, insights, and enthusiasm made the event truly remarkable, and we are deeply grateful for your contributions.

The success of this inaugural Mentoring Moments event was due to the active participation and shared wisdom of individuals like you. The feedback we received highlighted the meaningful connections and valuable discussions that took place, underscoring the importance of such initiatives in fostering professional growth and personal development within the career development community and NCDA.

To build on this success, we are excited to invite you to a VIRTUAL follow-up session for mentors and mentees. This session aims to continue the conversations started at the conference, provide further opportunities for networking, and deepen the relationships formed. The session is open to anyone who completed the mentoring moments electronic form this spring, signed-up for the follow-up session, or participated as a mentor/mentee in San Diego.

Details of the Follow-Up Session:

Date: August 7, 2024
Time: 2:00 PM EST to 3:00 PM EST
Platform: Zoom

During this session, we will have experienced leaders and small group facilitators:

• Recap the key takeaways from Mentoring Moments at the conference
• Share additional insights, questions and experiences about our personal career wellness
• Discuss the importance of mentoring in the career development field
• Explore how we can continue to support each other in our professional journeys.

The Zoom link and additional details will be sent out prior to the session. We encourage you to mark your calendars. 

This follow-up session is an excellent opportunity to reconnect with fellow participants, reflect on the progress made since the conference, and set new goals for the future. Your continued involvement and support are invaluable, and we are eager to see the positive impact that our collective efforts will bring.

Thank you once again for being a part of this initiative. Your dedication to mentoring  is truly inspiring, and we are excited to continue this effort together.
