Georgia Education Mentoring Program (GEM)

Georgia College and State University - GA, Georgia

The Georgia Education Mentoring Program (GEM) is a partnership between GC&SU and the Georgia Chamber of Commerce. This pilot project funded by the Robert W. Woodruff Foundation, pairs outstanding GC&SU students with community and professional leaders across the state. Through shadowing visits, and structured communication and reflection, the students identify the characteristics of leadership most effective in an ever-changing world. This opportunity to connect academic knowledge with the professional world at a high level enhances our commitment to provide communities and employers with graduates who exhibit professionalism, responsibility, service, leadership, and integrity.
