The UAB Mentor Programme, an initiative by the Alumni UAB aiming to accompany final-year students in the development of their professional careers, is entering its third edition this year. On 19 November at 5:30 p.m., the Rectorat building will host a presentation event in which participating students will meet their mentors, people who come from the professional world. This year, there will be 155 student-mentor pairs.

The event will feature institutional welcome speeches from UAB Rector Javier Lafuente and Vice-Rector for Students and Employability Annabel Galan. Following the speeches, instructor Lluís Bernabé will lead the activity "Professional self-knowledge: Do I know what my relationship and communication style is?", in which participants will work on the DISC questionnaire, a self-diagnosis tool that helps identify relationship and communication styles in the personal and professional spheres. This activity will help them learn to recognise and adapt to different interaction styles and thus improve their ability to relate effectively.

After the success of the pilot experience in the 2022/23 academic year and the first two editions, Alumni UAB is launching the third edition of its mentoring programme this year, in which alumni with professional leadership experience will guide students to discover their potential, understand the job market, and develop an action plan for their future.

Benefits for mentees include improved knowledge of their skills, empowerment for their professional career, a greater understanding of their sector, and confidence in developing their action plan. In return, mentors have the opportunity to share their experience, contribute to the growth of new generations, and participate in ongoing training in leadership and communication skills.
