Hello from Career Connection!

As you may know, Career Connection offers a Mentorship Program to UCSD staff who are looking to improve their technical skills, increase self-confidence and organizational visibility intended for retention and promotion. This program also benefits mentors as they gain coaching skills and the satisfaction of sharing their knowledge, skills, and experience.

If you are interested in becoming a mentor or mentee, please visit our newly launched
Mentorship Website and create an online profile so that we can identify someone who most closely fits your occupational goals and objectives.

For those who have been a mentor/mentee in the past and would like to continue, please create a new online profile as well.


Thank you,
Jorge Rios
