Mentoring

Mentoring is a relationship in which knowledge and skills are shared between members in a way in which everyone benefits. Often a more senior person is mentoring a junior person, but mentorship can happen between any two individuals. Mentoring will help Airmen and Guardians discover their strengths by achieving their full potential through a structured, trusting mentoring relationship.

Find a mentor and become a mentor! It’s easy to do both by registering in MyVector. In 2021, we completely redesigned the Mentoring platform in MyVector based on your feedback. New features include:
