ATIXA Mentor Match

Introducing ATIXA's New Peer-to-Peer Mentoring Program

We are pleased to announce ATIXA Mentor Match, ATIXA’s new mentoring program, which is open and free to all ATIXA Members. The purpose of Mentor Match is to foster leadership and gender equity in the Title IX industry by connecting experienced Title IX professionals with newer Title IX professionals.

How Does Mentor Match Work?

Mentor Match works by pairing Mentors, who are more experienced Title IX professionals, with Mentees, who are less experienced professionals. Mentors will be paired either one-on-one with Mentees or with a group of Mentees. Mentees will meet with their Mentors to work toward professional goals. Please note that ATIXA’s Mentor Match is not intended to be used for consulting services. Mentors are paired with Mentees to assist in developing professional skills, obtaining resources, and providing support within their Title IX role. Please click here to be directed to ATIXA’s parent organization, TNG, for consulting services or become a member of ATIXA to join the listserv.

Both Mentors and Mentees must:

  • Be a member of ATIXA. Learn more about ATIXA membership.
  • Commit to six months of programming by meeting at least once every other month.
  • Complete satisfaction surveys throughout the program.

How Do I Participate?

To participate in Mentor Match, you must be a member of ATIXA, the leading Title IX Administrator Association, and fill out an application. Applications are open and free to all levels of membership in ATIXA.

Once you have completed the application, you will be notified via email whether you have been selected to participate. Depending on number of applicants and fit, ATIXA will match Mentors with Mentees either one-on-one or in groups.

Mentors and Mentees are chosen based on the fit available, so there is a chance that not everyone who applies will be selected. If you are not selected, you are encouraged to apply again for the next round of applications.

Mentors are more experienced in the profession and provide support to a less-experienced professional, the Mentee. We are currently finalizing selections for the September 2024 cohort.
