Welcome educators and mentors to the mentor's network page at Next Greatest Generation. A technology-supported mentoring network where talented professionals and students volunteer their time to provide guidance, positive reinforcement, career information, one-on-one advice, and tutoring.

With e-mail based communications that will help mentors find time to foster their relationships with students and teachers while combining the tools and resources on this site, we can create a mentoring culture that encourages employees to give back to the schools, students, and engineering community.

Web-based discussion groups on topics relevant to mentoring where mentors can post their own messages or reply to messages posted by other mentors.

Mentoring programs dramatically increases student's chances for educational success by providing guidance and positive reinforcement.

The mentor can help students in developing skills, methods and work habits which the mentor developed painstakingly over their entire career.
 

Volunteer help to schools, become a Mind Rockets engineering club mentor, initiate field trips to local engineering and manufacturing facilities, and participate in Bring an Engineer to School Day.

Apply for a mentor's membership by filling out our mentor application form.

The qualities of an effective mentor are attitude and character, professional competence and experience, communication skills, and interpersonal skills.

Teachers and students can pick from a list of mentors based on their subject knowledge and related work experience in a number of different engineering fields.
