The AMA Atlanta Mentorship program connects local marketing professionals to learn from one another.
The goal is to give both mentors and mentees opportunities to network, gain new skills, and develop lasting relationships with other local marketers.
About the Marketing Mentorship Program
Join the interest list if the program is not currently open for applications.
Our mission is to develop lasting professional relationships, improve networking opportunities, and provide valuable career development for both mentees and mentors.
- The program runs twice each year—each spring and fall.
- After an application process, our team pairs up mentors and mentees.
- We do our best to match up everyone who applies, but participation isn’t guaranteed for everyone. If you don’t get matched up the first time, you’ll have priority the next semester.
- Each semester lasts four months, giving you plenty of time to meet up and learn.
- We typically have an in-person event around each semester to help you connect.
