WASBO is committed to supporting new business office staff throughout the course of the year. The WASBO Mentorship Program helps to accomplish this by pairing new business officials on a one-to-one basis with experienced veterans who can serve as a resource and sounding board, help to integrate the knowledge and skills learned through conferences and self-study and introduce the protégé to a network of contacts in the field. All first-time participants in the program will be assigned a mentor.
For more information on Mentorship, see www.wasbo.com/mentorship or contact Sue Schnorr and Jill Bodwin, WASBO Mentorship Program Coordinators.
