Applications open for Professional Women in Construction mentorship program pairing AEC industry mentors and mentees

The New York Chapter of Professional Women in Construction (PWC NY) has launched its 2024-2025 Mentorship Program. Applications for mentors and mentees are due by June 30, 2024 and the eight-month program starts in September. 

The PWC Mentorship program connects AEC individuals who are looking to get involved, network with peers and industry leaders and elevate their career to its full potential. The program encourages participants to build on their experience while enjoying monthly meetings and educational events such as panel discussions, skill-building workshops, and construction site visits. 

PWC is a nonprofit organization that supports career-minded women and works to promote diversity within the architecture, engineering, construction and related industries. New York is the founding chapter of PWC, established in 1980 by eight women who banded together to advance their careers and businesses in typically male-dominated fields. That vision is still at the core of PWC’s mission as they actively engage members through committees and events structured to provide leadership opportunities, networking and professional development.

“The PWC Mentorship Program pairs emerging professionals with seasoned AEC industry leaders to provide a unique opportunity for growth,” said Monika Mohacsi, co-chair of the PWC NY Mentorship Committee. “The application questionnaire serves to create the right partner match and results in a rewarding experience for both the mentor and mentee.”
