Mentorship

EHL’s flagship mentorship program is built on meaningful connections, pairing early- to mid-career professionals with experienced mentors who provide guidance and support throughout their leadership journey. Through structured learning, community building, and one-on-one mentorship, the program helps emerging leaders build confidence, expand their networks, and develop the skills needed to drive positive change in Edmonton’s health system and beyond.
