Mentoring Program

If you are new to the fundraising profession or are a senior industry practitioner, we would like you to participate in our FIA Mentoring Program.

The goal is for the mentor to share their wealth of professional and life experiences with members new to fundraising, regardless of age, and provide valuable insights, advice and guidance in relation to the mentee's work and career.

The duration of the mentoring arrangement is left entirely to the participants, but the timing is usually between three and six months. It is a flexible arrangement which fits in with the busy schedules of both mentor and mentee.

Guidelines are provided so that members know what to expect from the program and evaluations are completed at the end. The program is free to all FIA members.

Getting Involved

If you are interested in becoming a mentor or mentee, please download the relevant form and return to FIA with a current copy of your resume.
