Now On-Demand.

The ProWoc Mentoring Program connects professional women in Denmark and provides a platform for personal and career growth and development enabling them to unleash their full potential.

Mentoring – Developing a cohesive programme that matches mentors, who are experts in their fields; with relevant mentees, who seek advice in developing new skills, career advancement, job search, or starting their own business.
ProActive. ProYou. ProWoc Mentoring.
The tailor-made ProWoc Mentoring Program was initiated in 2020 in collaboration with Djøf and has received excellent reviews.
In our new On-Demand Mentoring, we no longer have cohorts and are open for new mentors and mentees on an on-going basis.
Mentor and mentee matching will occur monthly after April 2023.

Testimonials
“The mid-way event was a great time to reflect on the relationship with my mentor and what we have achieved so far. I think it will also contribute to our future sessions and how we can build on these from the experience of other participants.”
“We both find our meetings educational and also inspirational. In her feedback to me, my mentee said, ” I feel lucky to be so matched with you as my mentor” and this is also my sentiment as well.”
“We have made huge progress and we have both learned a lot from each other. My mentor has helped me meet more than 80% of the goals we set down for the entire journey and I am still making good progress.”
“Our journey is going well and my mentee seems to be heading in the direction that she wishes to. I am also using the sessions to practice my listening skills and feel that it is going well.”
