Mentoring Programs

Providing invaluable support for participants

Our Mentoring Programs provide crucial support and guidance to veterans, current service members, and their family members (aged 18+) assisting them in achieving their employment, education, and personal goals.

NEW Micro-Mentoring Program
Our NEW Micro-mentoring program connects Soldier On participants with career and industry professionals for valuable career discussions without the time commitments or wait-times of traditional mentoring programs.
 
Through one off, 45-minute mentoring sessions, veterans, current service members, and their families can gain invaluable insight into new career paths and begin to develop a clear career goal.
 
Micro-mentoring can be used as a stand-alone session or as a stepping stone into the full 18-week program.
Full 18-Week Program
Our award winning 18-week program fosters meaningful mentorship connections between experienced subject matter experts and Soldier On participants. 
 
The program understands the needs of veterans, current service members, and their families and combines a unique blend of structure and flexibility with tailored matches ensuring that each mentoring relationship is productive and meets the mentee’s specific needs.
 
Mentors work closely with mentees to create personalised development plans aligned with their individual goals. Mentees have free access to all of Soldier On’s resources including:
  • Soldier On’s Mentoring Program Guides
  • The Discover My Career Assessment (Harrison Career Navigation System)
  • The Soldier On Discover Your Career Purpose Workbook
  • IBM SkillsBuild courses
  • Udemy courses

My participation in the Soldier On mentoring program was instrumental in my successful appointment as Defence Contract Manager at CHC Helicopter.

I have developed a new professional mindset and am eager to dive into the dynamic and challenging world of Defence contracting, where every day promises new opportunities for growth and learning.
