Learning through sharing

Our cross-cultural peer mentoring scheme helps new students settle into university life and meet friends from around the world.

Why you should become a mentee or mentor

This is a great opportunity to

• get to know someone through a one-to-one supportive mentoring relationship
• develop your cultural awareness and learn about different traditions
• attend social activities and regular soft skills training with other members
• prepare for work in diverse organisations and add to your CV
• gain eligibility for the Hallam Award which is recognised by employers

Additional support

You will also be allocated to a learning set – a small, intimate group of mentees or mentors of different nationalities which enables you to gain a wide range of perspectives. You can discuss challenges and share helpful advice during your time on the scheme.

How to join

We will be recruiting for volunteers in August and September. Register your interest today at go.shu.ac.uk/applycc
