Discussion de panélistes - Mind the Gap: Models of Mentorship in Management avec Janelle Rainville - PMArts + TDArts |
| Universities, Colleges, and Conservatory programs ready students to begin their professional careers. The industry is looking to hire people who have the level of competency and experience they require to do the job.

How are we continuing to train our fledgling PMs and TDs? What opportunities are there for emerging workers who have studied management, and now need industry experience and mentorship to be ready to assume these roles themselves? How can mentorship, internships, and apprenticeships help create a better path from learning to working? Join our panellists to discuss what some companies are doing to bridge the gap. |
