Mentorship Program
Applications for the 2025 program are open through Friday, February 21.
The CMI Mentorship Program is an extension of our mission: to advance the practice of content marketing and create a community united by their desire to:
- Accelerate marketing thought leadership
- Help fellow marketers succeed
- Create a more inclusive future in the industry
The mentorship program provides a meaningful framework for action by leaning on our community’s expertise and resources to help pave the way for future content leaders. We’re placing emphasis on helping groups in need of greater industry representation.
WHO SHOULD APPLY?
Are you a content marketer? Looking for career guidance from someone outside your organization who understands the industry landscape? Need to talk through the marketing challenges you face? Then YOU should apply!
WHAT’S IN IT FOR ME?
The CMI Mentorship Program offers many opportunities for participants.
- Presents a chance to broaden your network.
- Gives one-on-one guidance to expand your perspective and learn the skills you need to succeed.
- Nurtures your own thought-leadership perspectives.
As a participant of the CMI Mentorship Program, you will also receive a complimentary All-Access Pass to this year’s Content Marketing World. With over 100 speakers and dozens of tracks, you will be able to create your own content experience!
HOW DOES THE MENTORSHIP PROGRAM WORK?
Each Mentor/Mentee partnership will be unique. We require monthly meetings during the six-month long program. Group events will be held throughout the months, but attendance is optional. (We do hope all participants join!) These events not only will cultivate a good relationship between Mentors and Mentees but will offer participants networking and growth within our community.
WHAT’S THE COST?
There is no charge for our mentees, aside from a time commitment. This program is about growing the industry and encouraging networking and peer collaboration.
HOW DO I APPLY TO BE A MENTEE?
It’s easy! Just complete our online application by Friday, February 21, 2025. All applicants must submit a resume and answer two questions.
- What do you hope to gain from this mentorship?
- What is your biggest marketing need right now?
You are also encouraged to include a short video introducing yourself, but this is optional. Not submitting a video will not affect your chances of being accepted into the program.
