Become a PAL Mentor
Remember when you were finalizing your plans to study at Niagara College? Did you wish for more pre/post-arrival support to help smooth your transition to life in Canada? Since you have successfully walked this path before, we think that you are the best resource for supporting new students!
As a PAL (Pre-Arrival Link) Mentor, you will help new students to learn and grow within the broader NC community. This volunteer opportunity is also eligible for credit on your Co-Curricular Record!
As a PAL Mentor you will:
- Successfully complete PAL mentor training
- Be available as needed for mentee inquiries throughout the PAL mentor commitment
- Provide timely replies to questions from mentees
- Attend orientation to meet mentees face to face
- Educate mentees to navigate and utilize college and community resources
- Contact every mentee two weeks after orientation to follow up on their transition
