Mentoring aims to foster meaningful relationships between UCF alumni and current students. These connections prepare our students for successful futures and leave a lasting impact on our campus community.
Below is a list of participating mentorship programs being offered during the 2025-2026 academic year.
Welcome to the 1969 Club Alumni Mentorship Program! Our mission is to empower students by providing a platform for mentorship that promotes personal and professional growth. We are grateful for our alumni’s participation and commitment to guiding current students. For students, this program offers the chance to connect with alumni and gain valuable insights and advice. Through these meaningful connections, the 1969 Club Alumni Mentorship Program aims to prepare students for a successful future and create a lasting impact on the UCF community.
What sets this program apart? Students and alumni are matched based on professional development skills that the student has a desire to learn and the alumnus/a has the expertise to teach. Whether it is networking, resume review or how to nail that next interview, this program is designed to be a meaningful experience that helps you develop and hone marketable skills.
The 1969 Club Mentorship Program is facilitated by the UCF Black Alumni Community and open to all students and alumni.
The ChargeOn Mentoring Program connects UCF alumni across generations to support professional growth and career development. This program pairs young alumni (graduates age 32 or younger) with experienced UCF alumni mentors who provide guidance, share industry insights, and help build essential skills. Matches are based on professional goals and interests such as networking, applying to graduate or professional schools, time management, and more.
The purpose of this program is to connect current students with alumni mentors who share similar academic backgrounds, professional interests and career fields. Alumni mentors act as advisors, share professional experiences, provide new perspectives/insight into the industry, share knowledge about career advancement and assist in the building and enhancement of their mentee’s individual skill set.
