Mentorship

The Lincoln Alexander School of Law is built around the pillars of community and increased access to opportunities. Our mentorship programs are designed to support students through their law school journey by providing them with access to a community of mentors to help guide their law career.

Peer to Peer Mentorship for 1L Students 

The Lincoln Alexander School of Law has collaborated with Toronto Metropolitan University's Tri-Mentoring Program to offer peer to peer mentorship, providing peer matches for first year students at the law school. First year mentees are matched with second or third year Law students. Whether students need advice on exam writing skills, what extracurricular activities to get involved in, or just wish to have a conversation, the peer to peer mentorship program is available. Students interested in the peer to peer mentorship program, as a mentee or mentor, are encouraged to sign up for the Peer Mentoring: Lincoln Alexander School of Law (external link)  program by creating a profile and answering the program questions.

Mentorship in the Field 

This program aims to assist our law students in all aspects of their law school journey and beyond. Students will be provided with opportunities to connect and network with lawyers who can provide confidential guidance, support, and a window into life after law school. To sign up to become a mentor or mentee, please sign up for the Mentorship in the Field: Lincoln Alexander School of Law program (external link)  by creating a profile and answering the program questions.

PPSC Mentorship Program

The Public Prosecution Service of Canada (PPSC) mentorship program provides students with the opportunity to connect with prosecutors in the Ontario Court of Justice and the Superior Court of Justice and become familiar with criminal procedure and the daily practice of criminal law. This will now be housed under our Mentorship in the Field Program (see above for more information).
