Henia has enjoyed seeing her mentees grow their skills to become more curious and insightful.
She has volunteered her valuable experience for students in the Early Offer Year 12 (E12) Professional Mentoring Program as well as a Business Mentor for the Dalyell Scholar Program. E12 was an early offer and scholarship scheme previously available to high school leavers, providing them with a reduced entry score, an early offer to the University, a scholarship and access to a mentoring program.
The E12 Program has recently been replaced with MySydney Entry and Scholarship Scheme, which was launched this year to address Australia’s widening education gap and provide access for students who may not otherwise have been able to achieve a tertiary education. Mentorship from our alumni volunteers continues to be a vital part of our MySydney scholars transition to university.
Through the mentoring program, students can explore career aspirations, build graduate qualities, increase employability skills and create networks both at university and in the workplace, all under the good company and guidance of experienced industry professionals.
In supporting our future leaders to shine, Henia says the most important change she has seen in her mentees is that they have grown in their confidence and curiosity.
“They become more open to how the world outside of university can benefit from their skills. I love to see how they ask – and keep asking – questions over the time and how those questions become more and more insightful.”
