eMentoring is an online (and in person) mentoring platform supporting Indigenous entrepreneurs and professionals by connecting them with industry experts to receive mentoring and support to overcome career problems or challenges.

Why?
According to the latest government employment study, the Indigenous unemployment rate is currently 21%, an increase of 4.3 percentage points since 2008, and is 4 times the current non-Indigenous unemployment rate of 5%.

By mentoring and support Indigenous entrepreneurs and professionals to achieve their career goals, we could help re-shape these statistics and our communities.
