So far, we have 49 PreSEED mentor-mentee pairs (out of 54 available) and
48 SEED mentor-mentee pairs (out of 54 available). The two worldwide
Engineering mentoring terms are 90% matched in the first five weeks (the cycle began
on 3 December). If the Mentor and Mentee are matched after the
actual start of the term, the mentoring partnership still lasts for six
months from the match date, regardless of when the term formally ends.
On 15 December, I started an experiment which I hope will improve
SEED communications. I set up a group for SEED
Engineering Mentoring mentees, mentors, and managers on
LinkedIn. Since then, I have approved adding
345 current and alumni SEED managers, mentors, and mentees to the new group.
