Student mentoring

by | Jan 15, 2022 | News

APPLICATIONS FOR 2022 ARE NOW OPEN!

Submit your interest before 30 MARCH to be considered for the 2022 mentoring program. 

Going from University straight into the professional working world can come as quite a shock. Students might have thought the learning stopped after sitting their last university exam but in reality, we all know how hard it is to take that first step into the world outside of University. This is when real learning starts.  Mentoring can be very rewarding. Some of the challenges which Sports Chiropractic Students face is connecting with practising doctors and working their way through the minefields. Some of the common questions about licensing, laws, and practice in countries they may not be from and how they can get valuable experience working with athletes, all comes from becoming connected with an experienced hand who has been there and knows the ropes.
