PGO is hosting a mentoring session for students and registrants at the University of Toronto Scarborough.

Mentoring a student is an opportunity to give back to the geoscience community and make a difference in a mentee's future, all while developing leadership and coaching skills. Also, for P.Geo.'s, participation in this event counts as a continuing professional development activity.
