Guidelines & Disclosure

Our Guidelines 

Professionalism: Use the mentorship relationship to practice and model professional behavior.

Mentorship is not therapy: Focus on career-related issues, as this is the student’s opportunity to gain a unique perspective and insight into his/her career plan.

Confidentiality: Maintain respectful, professional confidentiality during all mentorship communication.

Communication: Communication should be guided by the Mentorship Agreement with regards to frequency and length of contacts.

Responsibility: Mentors and mentees are always responsible to act professionally.

Our Disclosure

The JCCC HIT Career Mentorship program is not a job search, resume posting, job board or employment service. Its purpose is to connect students with mentors who will help them further their professional skills and assist with career development planning, but not serve as a job interview or placement.

The program is not responsible for the content of communications and interactions between mentors and mentees, but reserves the right to terminate the participation of anyone that violates JCCC policy guidelines, such as those regarding FERPA, sexual harassment and non-discrimination.
