CultureLink’s Community Connections Mentorship Program (CCMP) has a long history of supporting newcomers in establishing both social and professional networks through mentoring and networking events. The new TRIEC Mentoring Partnership Program comes as a natural next step to provide further career mentoring opportunities for our clients.
We are excited to become a community partner with the TRIEC Mentoring Partnership, not only does the program provides an opportunity for mentors and mentees to connect, but it also helps participants connect to a network of professionals within the community.
