The Alliance Mentorship Program supports healthcare CPD professionals through structured, six-month mentor-mentee pairings designed to foster deep professional connections and accelerate growth within our community.
2026 Mentorship Program
Save the date! The application window for the 2026 program will be open March 23, 2026. If you are ready to grow or give back, please complete the appropriate application by Friday, May 1. The first session will kick off in late June.
Don’t delay — spots are reserved on a first-come, first-served basis.
Program Overview
- Tailored Matching: Participants are paired based on industry tenure, communication styles and professional interests.
- Dynamic Pairing: To maximize knowledge sharing, mentees may be matched with up to two mentors, while mentors may guide multiple mentees.
- Monthly Engagement: All participants will join monthly group mentoring sessions with dedicated focus areas. In addition, mentor-mentee pairs are expected to meet at least once a month for a one-on-one session. Resources will be provided to help structure these meetings.
- Note on Matching: To maintain the integrity of our pairing process, we do not accept special requests for specific matches. The only exception is in the case of direct workplace conflict (ex: supervisor and employee).
What to Expect
- Duration: 6 months
- Time Commitment: 2-4 hours/month
- Format: Monthly one-on-one meetings and optional group mentoring sessions
Participants are matched based on experience, learning goals and interests aligned with the National Learning Competencies. Mentors and mentees are encouraged to co-create their meeting cadence and communication style, with supporting resources provided for each session. All you need is an open mind and a genuine willingness to share knowledge are essential for all participants!
Due to high demand, participation will be capped at just 40 mentors and 40 mentees this year — be sure to secure your spot early. Dependent on program needs and alignment, a mentee may be matched with multiple mentors, and a mentor may guide multiple mentees.
