This year we rolled out the Mentor Leaders Program. In2science mentors were paired with STEM Professional Mentors to facilitate career discussions and filter it down to secondary school students!

Tomorrow we celebrate the mentor's commitment and achievements at @Toyota_Aus 🎉🧵

In2science mentors and their STEM Professional mentors will meet, network and reflect on their involvement in the program.

We then invite all guests to engage in a panel discussion exploring 'STEM graduate pathways - navigating challenges & creating opportunities'.

We are excited to be joined by 4 panel members from various fields in STEM.

First up we have Catherine Hart, a senior sustainability & environmental consultant 🌱👷‍♀️@Toyota_Aus. Cat will be talking about how the industry has changed since she started working.

Next, we are thrilled to be joined by Thilanka Morawakage, a project assistant for the BRACE trial @MCRI_for_kids 🥼🧪. Thilanka will be talking to us about the importance of mentoring for people in STEM, particularly grad students.

Ivy Weng, a process engineer from @CSL will also be joining us! We are excited to hear all about Ivy's career path as she talks about how her education, training and graduate positions prepared her for her current role.

Last but not least, we are excited to be Lyndon Embling, a consultant for Beige Technologies! Lyndon will be wrapping up the panel discussion by talking to us about how the pandemic has accelerated the role of tech in our everyday life! 👨‍💻💻

Thank you to @Toyota_Aus Community Trust Fund for their support in facilitating this program!
