WCE Wants You to be a Mentor

Because our objective is that each student is already "networked" into the community when they graduate, our mentoring program is integral to our success. Each student is matched with a mentor based on personality, and industry interest. The mentor agrees to stay with the student for the entire time they are enrolled in the program, but these important relationships often extend for years after graduation. Watch this video to see how you can become a mentor for a WCE student.

Our Goal

Two types of students are selected to enter the WCE program – those with several years of business experience, and those with little, or any business experience. Because our objective is that each student is already “networked” into the community when they graduate, we began a mentoring program that is integral to our success. Each student is matched with a mentor based on personality, and industry interest. The mentor agrees to stay with the student for the entire time they are enrolled in the program, but these important relationships often extend for years after graduation.
