Information for Mentees


Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I choose a Mentor? First complete your profile with information on what help you are looking for. Then browse through the list of mentors and create mentoring request.
  • How long will the mentors be available? We ask our mentors to make commitments of up to six months.  You may not need that long, and you can shorten the duration if needed.  Should you want to extend the relationship past 6 months, you can do so informally outside the Chronus platform.
  • What if the relationship is not going well, what to do? We encourage letting the mentor know about the situation and contact the Admin Immediately. We will provide our full support to resolve the situation in a positive and satisfactory manner.
