Mentor for a Day
Date 3/25/2010
Location Radisson Hotel

Newport Beach,CA
Description Sixty students from Corona del Mar, Newport Harbor, and Back Bay/Monte Vista High Schools, and the Orange Coast Middle College will be selected to participate in this exciting program. Each student will be matched with a mentor who can provide insight into a chosen career.

The half-day program on Thursday, March 25, 2010 will begin with a 7:30 a.m. breakfast at the Radisson Hotel (4545 MacArthur Blvd., Newport Beach). After the morning presentation, a small group of students will accompany a mentor to the workplace for “job shadowing.” Students will ask questions about the qualifications, education and training needed to be successful in their mentors’ careers. After the workplace visit, the groups will meet at the Radisson for a buffet lunch where students and mentors will briefly describe their experiences.

The Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce encourages the business community to become involved in this valuable program. In addition to providing students with a taste of the working world, many mentors find the experience personally rewarding.
