    Dear Members,

    There has been a fantastic response from members to this programme and we have received a strong number of mentees. As such the mentee component of applications will close on the 16th of March 2021. With a strong response from Mentees, I would like to reach out to potential mentors to sign up prior to the 16th of March - so that we can ensure that every mentee in their respective category will be matched by a mentor and I can keep the timing of the programme on track. As I reviewed all the submissions from both mentee and mentor I am impressed by the depth and breadth of experience of the mentors and with the mentees, many  are very experience in other areas and have a desire to now make a difference in the Dispute Resolution industry. Overall I am impressed and proud of our members in wanting to make a difference in what they do and it is the intention of this programme to ensure that you can be supported and taken to the next level as a mentee and or a mentor. The application process is enclosed below for your convenience.
