Menttium Offers Scholarship Award to Businesswomen Leaders
Corporate Mentoring Program Makes Scholarships Available for Top Talent in Non-Profit Sector
Minneapolis, MN – May 15th, 2009 – In recognition of the talented businesswomen in the non-profit sector, Menttium Corporation, is offering several full scholarship awards to the prestigious Menttium 100® leadership development program.
Menttium 100 Program participants are paired with a more senior executive from another company for a year-long mentoring partnership accompanied by business education and networking opportunities.
Hailed as “the model for mentoring systems nationwide,” by the U.S. Department of Labor, Menttium has created more than 50,000 mentoring partnerships since it was founded in 1991. Many of America’s premier companies and senior executives participate in the Menttium 100 Program making this a “once-in-a-career” opportunity for emerging female leaders.
“No one person has all the answers,” said Kim Vappie, Menttium CEO. “But by participating in the Menttium 100 Program, a woman is able to build a personal board of directors to help guide her career.”
Women with a minimum six years professional experience, above-average performance and proven commitment to professional and personal growth are qualified to apply. Candidates should be in a leadership position within the non-profit sector. The 2009 recipients will be honored at the Program Launch.
Qualified candidates should submit online applications on Menttium’s website. The deadline for candidates in Minneapolis is August 14th; for Chicago and Virtual (open to candidates anywhere in the world) is September 18th. Final selection will be announced in the fall.
