Applications deadline: October 20, 2020
MANY THANKS TO OUR PARTNER
We are grateful to have the support of Chan Zuckerberg Initiative for the Spring 2020 Program to bring this opportunity at no charge to designers and managers who need to overcome professional challenges.
60 Days Program
This is a part time 5 weeks program. Design leaders will meet with mentees virtually for 1:1 working sessions, every week for 1 hour long meetings. They set the timeframes & dates based on their availability.
1:1 Coaching
Design professionals will be paired with an accomplished design leader for a unique coaching experience. They'll help mentees discuss challenges, answer questions, identify goals and provide support in achieving them.
Private Workshops & Events
Additionally they will be invited to one workshop and career panel we host during the program to connect with the mentors, learn and work on their challenges.
