Achievements in Mentoring (AIM) is PSPS’ renowned mentoring program. This program has been around for over 20 years and is still going strong.

In this program, we pair PSPS members with early-in-career HR professionals. The pairs meet bi-weekly for 6 months (from January to June). During these meetings, the mentees identify and work on career goals in partnership with the mentor, who provides coaching, guidance, and expertise to support and help them along the way. Consider joining us for our next cohort in 2024!

You can find our Mentor Application here and our Mentee Application here.
