Mentorship Program

NorthState CCI Mentorship Program

The NorthState CCI Mentorship Program is the signature mentoring program in CCI. This program is committed to student success and promoting greater gender diversity in computing. Inspired by the memory of Velva Hayden, NorthState’s former CEO, and one of the first female CEOs in the South, the program is focused on three pillars: pairing students with a corporate mentor, developing leadership skills, and building a community of women in technology.
