The DCMO BOCES Mentorship Program works with County Business Organizations To Recruit and Prepare Mentors.
DCMO BOCES prepares students from 16 School Districts to engage in mentoring relationships to improve opportunities to explore local careers and jobs.
A Federal funding partnership with the Appalachian Regional Commission provides incentives for 12th grade students to complete a mentoring track that includes resume preparation, mentoring sessions and a workbased learning experience.
Local funding partnerships with the Foundation for South Central New York, and the Greater Norwich Foundation, expanded resources to support students needs and support the mentorship recruitment and preparation efforts.
Partnerships with regional employers will open doors for students who complete the Mentoring Program to apply for jobs or to complete internship and shadowing experiences.
