Mentorship offers tangible benefits for alumni engagement, student outcomes, and institutional advancement. Here’s how it makes a difference:
Graduation Rates
Mentorship programs increased graduation rates by 24% at a 4-year institution
Advancement
Alumni in mentoring programs are 209% more likely to donate to their alma mater.
Except they're hard to run.
Here are a few reasons:
Poor preparation
Students are poorly prepared, which causes mentors to feel disappointed.
Slow, manual matching
Or conversely, sacrifice quality to match mentees/mentors faster...
Lack of data & insights
Data is usually collected via a post program survey, which is a post mortem.
But we have it solved.
