Mentorship

Browse through a curated list of available mentors, each with a professional profile showcasing their bio, areas of expertise, years of experience, and educational background.
Users can request a connection with mentors whose background aligns with their career goals or interests.
Once a mentor approves the request, the platform enables a direct chat feature, allowing mentees to communicate, ask questions, and receive personalised guidance in a secure and supportive environment.

Mentorship Appointment

Allows users to request an appointment with their connected mentor by proposing a preferred date and time directly through the chat interface.
Mentors can accept, decline, or suggest an alternative time, enabling flexible scheduling based on availability.
Once both parties confirm the appointment, it is automatically added to their appointment lists within the platform.
The platform sends a reminder email to both mentor and mentee ahead of the scheduled time to ensure no appointments are missed
