I am writing to enquire about the application process & eligibility requirements to take part in the Lucy Mentoring program for the year 2010. I am currently working on my third year in a Bachelor of Business majoring in economics at UNE, intending to finish at the end of next year and have head that this program is of great assistance in being aware of options available upon completion of your degree.
Thanking You,

Hi Allison
We usually call for applications in March each year and there will be posters around the BEPP buildings as well in regard to an information session.
Being in your last year of study is an excellent time to be involved in the program, but be aware that there is a commitment on your behalf to undertake the program.
Keep an eye on this blog for more info closer to the time.

Thanks for your reply Julia,
Are you able to tell me what kind of commitment you refer to? Is there a cost involved with undertaking the program? Is there a required period of work experience? Wanting to figure out if this is the program for me,

The program consists of attending a few workshops, a launch, a graduation ceremony and at least 35 hours with your host employer, this can be a few hours here or there, email and phone contacts or it can be in a block. One exciting thing about our regional program is that many of our students have been lucky enough to go on road trips with their host employer, some even for an overnight in Sydney and others to regional towns out west.
You will also be required to write a reflective journal and do a short 3 minute presentation at the graduation ceremony.
