NOTICE OF ZOOM MEETING
DATE: Thursday, November 4, 2021
TiIMES: 12:15pm
LOCATION: Zoom Video Conference
TITLE: Speed Mentorship Events
Join the Women Lawyers’ Forum Section for this speed mentorship event. This event will present law students and new lawyers (mentees) with an opportunity to speak with legal professionals regarding their practice areas, careers, and overall development, allowing participants to gain some valuable insight, particularly in light of these challenging economic times.
Interested mentees may register for one session of speed mentorship.
At the session, mentees will be divided into small breakout rooms. Mentors will “speed network” through each breakout room during the event timeframe, allowing breakout room mentees to speak to each mentor. We encourage you to arrive with questions to make the most of your time with each mentor!
Zoom conferencing details will be provided by email to those who register. Due to the nature of this event, registration is limited. If you are unable to attend this event following your registration, please inform us about your cancellation as soon as possible so we may accept waitlisted participants.
Please RSVP (PRE-REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED) to the Manitoba Bar Association online (link above).
