ISC2 SG Mentorship Program

ISC2 Singapore Chapter is proud to be running its cybersecurity mentorship program since 2020.

To ensure our mentors are able to guide our mentees with good mentoring skills this year, all ISC2 Singapore mentors will go through a short training program, conducted by a qualified trainer who will share tips and skills on how to be a good mentor. Mentors who graduate from the training program will be qualified ISC2 Singapore cybersecurity mentors and their names will be shared on our ISC2 Singapore Chapter website, accessible only by our chapter members.

All interested mentees will be able to identify their desired mentors from the ISC2 Singapore site. Mentees could include students who are seeking for a career in cybersecurity as well as students from polytechnics and ITEs. 

If you are thinking of starting or just started a career in cybersecurity and you are looking for cybersecurity mentors who have been veterans in the field to provide you guidance on what you can do in this new exciting career, then the ISC2 SG Mentorship Program may be just right for you.
