Scientific Mentorship
QASEA has established partnerships with institutions to offer mentorship to teachers and students to support them with science fair projects.
IVADO | Institut de valorisation des données, offers mentorship to teachers and students from Quebec’s First Nations and Inuit Schools.
The Réseau Technoscience who organizes the Hydro-Québec Science Fair has created a mentorship system, S.O.S. Mentor in partnership with the Fédération du personnel professionnel des universités et de la recherche (FPPU).
The online system was designed to let students find support from professional scientists. By registering to the system, students can be matched with a scientist interested in the same field. The mentors are scientists who volunteer to help students.
To assist you in determining if mentorship is for you, read the Practical Guides intended for students, mentors, teachers, and parents (Available in French). Before registering, make sure you understand the mentor-mentee relationship. See: Guides and Tools - Réseau technoscience
