Become a Mentor

Information and resources available to accounting professionals who wish to become mentors to the next generation.

As a member in good standing, you will provide guidance to aspiring CPAs to help them achieve required competencies, with a focus on developing the essential enabling skills for ethical behaviour, decision-making, problem-solving, communication and leadership.

MENTOR ASPIRING CPA

Your role as a CPA mentor does not require you to help CPA students/candidates with their studies, exam preparation, or job search. Instead, you can expect to:

  • provide future CPAs support and insight that can broaden their mindsets
  • give back and invest in the future of the profession
  • enhance your personal growth and professional development from mentoring

The process to become a mentor

THERE ARE THREE WAYS TO GET INVOLVED IN THE CPA MENTORSHIP PROGRAM

  • Volunteer to join the CPA mentoring pool
  • Participate in your organization’s pre-approved program (if applicable)
  • Accept a mentor request from a future CPA

CPA Mentorship Program: FAQs for Mentors available on the CPA Canada website contains the answers to questions you may ask about the CPA mentorship program.
