RYP Mentorship

What is the Richland Young Professionals Mentorship Program?

The Richland Young Professionals Mentorship Program is a cornerstone of RYP’s goal to develop the skills of young professionals. The program gives RYP members the opportunity to connect with seasoned, high-level business leaders for 6 months of learning, discovery, and challenge, all while providing mentees with a firsthand look at life and work in Richland County. Mentors and mentees in the program reflect the diversity of workplace offerings in Richland County such as small and large businesses, non-profit, healthcare, and education. The Richland Young Professionals Mentorship Program is sponsored by our partners at The Blueberry Patch.

What is the commitment?

This year’s program will commence in May and conclude in October. Mentors and mentees are expected to meet at a minimum of one time per month for the duration of the program. In additional to individual meetings, these program milestones are mandatory to attend:
