Find the Perfect Pairing with MentorMatch

It's time to take your career to the next level!

Fall enrollment for SWANA’s premier mentorship program, MentorMatch, is now open until November 10, 2023.

SWANA’s MentorMatch is the perfect place to pair up experienced solid waste professionals willing to share their expertise with colleagues, young professionals, and students looking for guidance or information to help advance their careers in the solid waste management and recycling industry.

This program allows both mentors and mentees to grow professionally and personally through each interaction with other SWANA members.

Mentors will be matched with mentees selected for the program starting in November 2023. The course of the program will run for four months.

As a mentor, you can:

• Share your knowledge and expertise with others
• Pay it forward
• Enhance your leadership skills
• Build lasting business and personal relationships with colleagues
• Provide an important bridge to the future of solid waste and recycling management.
• Identify young leaders for the continuing success of SWANA!

This opportunity is available anytime, and you can be added to the Mentor Directory.

As a mentee, you can:

• Grow your network and knowledge base
• Strengthen your skills in the industry
• Feel more prepared for career advancement
• Build lasting business and personal relationships with colleagues
• Gain valuable resources and problem-solving techniques
• Share your insight in future policy and direction of the solid waste and recycling industries.
• Establish yourself as One-to-watch as your career advances.

Due to the overwhelming number of prospective mentees to the program, there will be a limited number of mentees selected for the program. Enrollment is open until November 10, 2023.

Note: We now offer two sessions in the Fall and Spring for mentorships with limited spots available for matches per session.
