Please read prior to applying to be a GEM Mentor

Dear GEM Mentor Applicant, 

Thank you for your interest in the 2021-22 GEM Program. Please read the following before beginning your application. 

1. This application is for individuals applying to be a GEM Mentor for the 2021-22 cohort, starting in September 2021. If you are interested in applying to GEM as a Mentee, you can find your application here. 

2. Applying and interviewing with GEM does not guarantee you a spot in the upcoming cohort. Girls E-Mentorship has a comprehensive matching and screening process. Although you may be accepted into the program,  you are not guaranteed to be matched with a Mentee. Mentor and Mentee matching is based on current cohort capacity and Mentee criteria (e.g. career aspirations, needs, hobbies, interests and residential location).

PLEASE NOTE: This application requires two additional steps. 
1. Complete the WAIVER on Page 2. 
2. Submit a Vulnerable Sector Check or Proof of Payment on Page 2. 
  • ALL mentor applicants must submit proof of payment for a Vulnerable Sector Check with their local police service (City of Toronto, Peel Region, Durham Region, etc.) OR submit an existing cleared police check from no earlier than 2018.
  • If you submit a proof of payment, we ask that you send the cleared Vulnerable Sector Check as soon as you receive it in the mail.
Please see here for more details on the GEM Mentor application process.
