We-Discover Mentorship Cohort 2023 Edition
The We-Discover mentorship program dubbed International Women’s Day (IWD) mentorship cohort is an annual mentorship cohort in celebration of International Women’s Day. It is the largest mentorship cohort run by Wentors designed for women with 0-2 years' work experience, in entry-level roles, recent graduates from college/university, or transitioning into the technology industry.
For the 2023 edition of the We-Discover mentorship program, we are introducing 3 new categories into the program. Participants would be able to apply into any of the categories themed; WE LEARN, WE WENTOR, WE WORK, respectively. We hope that via this program we would be able to cater to participants with zero experience in technology, seeking mentorship, and those looking out for internship/work opportunities. We have a goal to impact a minimum of 5000 women in technology in different regions of the world across the 3 categories of the program
