(ISC)2 SG Mentorship Program 2023

The long awaited (ISC)2 Singapore Mentorship Program is back for our 3rd term!

To ensure our mentors are able to guide our mentees with good mentoring skills this year, the (ISC)2 Singapore Mentorship team will be conducting the program slightly differently from previous years by calling for interested cybersecurity mentors into the program first. This batch of mentors will go through a short training program, conducted by a qualified trainer who will share tips and skills on how to be a good mentor. Mentors who graduate from the training program will be qualified (ISC)2 Singapore cybersecurity mentors and their names will be shared on our (ISC)2 Singapore Chapter website.

All interested mentees will be able to identify their desired mentors from the (ISC)2 Singapore site in Aug 2023. This year, we are extending the program to students who are seeking for a career in cybersecurity, which will include students from polytechnics. 

If you are thinking of starting or just started a career in cybersecurity and you are looking for cybersecurity mentors who have been veterans in the field to provide you guidance on what you can do in this new exciting career, then the (ISC)2 SG Mentorship Program 3.0 may be just right for you.
