What is Career Mentoring?
The OCC's Career Mentor Program enhances the student experience by linking students to one-on-one with a career mentor.
Students are paired with someone invested in their success — a person ready to listen, inspire, help navigate challenges and recognize opportunities. Students gain career advice and valuable insights, while mentors build their networks and develop skills to become better professionals and leaders.
