Are you in control of your life? Is your career progressing according to a plan? Do you know where you are heading and the steps needed to achieve your goals?
Mentoring allows you to focus on how you can forward your career and overcome work related issues. A mentor can provide guidance, support and space for you to think.

Mentoring partnerships usually last two to three years, but you may be looking for a quick boost, help with learning a specific skill. MentorSET caters for both situations.
At present the MentorSET scheme is open only to mentees who are members of WES (easy to join) or one of the affiliated groups which include Cambridge AWiSE, Women in Physics Group from the Institute of Physics, BCSWomen, Women@Cl and present Daphne Jackson Fellows.
