Speed Mentoring

Whether you’re ready to jump in and get started, or still deciding if the VPA Spring Mentorship Program is right for you, or just trying to wrap your head around what it all means—The Speed Mentoring event is for you!

In mid February each year, the VPA Mentorship Committee hosts an introductory event that connects established industry professionals with the upcoming generation of Post Production in Vancouver. Potential program participants are divided into Mentors and Mentees and provided the unique opportunity to test the waters of this program in a fun and interactive environment.

Throughout the Speed Mentoring Event, Mentees rotate through the Mentors; using the allotted five minutes to ask a few questions and give both parties a taste of our Spring Mentorship Program prior to applications opening.
