By completing this form it is assumed that you are willing and able to take part in the 2025 Women's Mentoring Programme, He Ira Wāhine. Please note, this programme is only open to women business students undertaking business school qualifications. In 2025, both Undergraduate and Postgraduate students are able to apply to be a mentee on the programme. Students who are here on exchange are not able to apply. Mentees on the programme need to be based in Auckland and enrolled in courses for the duration of the programme. If you are going on exchange in 2025, you will not be eligible to apply. If you have previously been a mentee on this programme, you are not able to apply again.

We recommend participants meet up with their mentors once a month, outside of the on-campus events, with a minimum of four face-to-face meetings throughout the year. The programme runs during the academic year, from March to October. We provide monthly topics of discussion and resources to help drive discussion.

You must be willing to commit to the programme and be able to attend evening events. There are 7 events for mentees throughout the year, including a briefing session, a programme launch event with all participants in March, panel and networking events, and a final closing celebration in September.
