PAA MENTOR PROGRAM

Visionaries and Innovators

Welcome to our PAA Mentor Page where you can connect with individuals who have volunteered their time and their knowledge to help PYA members as they decide which road to travel. Continuing PAA values through mentoring The PAA Mentor Program is designed to support PYA and PAA members through connections with effective corporate executives, business owners and professionals for a rigorous mentorship experience to help them further their knowledge, experience, and understanding of career related skills and resources in order to become more successful.

The main goal of the program is to connect Mentors with Mentees through a mentorship experience in order to support Mentees with performance or career exploration. Mentors are recruited professionals and include corporate executives, small business owners & professionals from a variety of occupations. Mentees will be high school or college students or aspiring professionals that are current and paid PYA/PAA members. In addition, we offer monthly PAA Online Mentor Talks and we hope you will visit this page often to hear about upcoming programs.
