Mentorship

CFA_Mentor_banner_3.jpg


The Board of Directors of the CFA Society of Houston has decided to join other societies across the country in offering a Mentorship Program to its members.  This is an opportunity for seasoned professionals and young professionals to connect, share knowledge and experiences, grow, and create lasting relationships in an atmosphere of confidentiality, trust, and respect. 

The Mentorship Program is not a job placement program.  Therefore, it is highly likely that the mentor and mentee will not share the same career path or industry experience.  Furthermore, it has been the experience of many societies that the number of mentee applications outweighs mentors so not all applicants will be accepted.
