As a mentor, I spend about one to two hours every other month with my mentee, working with them toward their goals and objectives. I have had the pleasure of meeting new people and becoming colleagues and friends with my mentees. I have been so impressed with my colleagues from AFP who have served as mentors. There is close to a collective 300 years of experience from those who mentored last year! If you have less than five years of experience in development, you should absolutely take advantage of becoming a mentee. If you have more than ten years experience, please volunteer to become a mentor.
