Mentorship Programme

Capitalizing on our alumni network, we are excited to bring you our very own ECA Mentorship Programme!

How it works:

  • Every ECA member has the possibility to apply to one of our mentors depending on your interests and ambitions.

  • The ECA mentorship coordinators will allocate the mentees to suitable mentors.
