"Helping other Internationally Educated Nurses (IENs) is important to me. IENs have so much to offer but are still rarely seen in management, education and research roles. I want to help them become licensed and take on a variety of valued roles within the healthcare system. Helping other IENs is very rewarding. "

“Early in my time in Canada, I failed an exam and it was a shock. For my second attempt, mentorship made all the difference for me to succeed. Now I love helping [internationally educated physiotherapists]. Making this process which was difficult for me easier for others is rewarding.”

“I have helped other [internationally trained pharmacists] achieve their goals by offering my advice and expertise. Apart from the satisfaction of seeing someone else succeed, it will grow my network.”

“Mentorship can save a lot of time and money during licensing because having someone to help me understand the process and healthcare system avoids mistakes and builds confidence to keep going. Now, helping other [internationally trained pharmacists] is always rewarding. It can make such a difference to whether someone succeeds in Canada or not. Mentoring always teaches me something, and helping more Internationally Trained Pharmacists (ITPs) build successful careers in Canada helps me, helps them, and helps their patients as well.

"Mentoring is a great way to give back. My first few years in Canada were not easy. Now I can help others meet their goals and the additional income helps me pay back loans I took out during my earlier time in Canada."

“I love giving someone else the chance to get back into physiotherapy, to feel pride in themselves and their profession again, and to provide a better standard of living for their family. That feels very good.”

"Helping health professionals who has immigrated to Canada begin working in their profession is one of the most rewarding things I have done in my career. Being part of a mentee's journey to success, personal fulfillment and improved financial security means a lot. Knowing that they will go on to help many patients and enhance the health of our whole community is so important. Now, seeing our post-pandemic healthcare system struggle, it's more important than ever."

Do not accept a new mentee if you are not sure you will have enough time to work with them. Once you have made a commitment, ensure you finish the service by the completion deadline to get paid on time and get better reviews.
Mentees pay with PayPal or their credit card (Stripe) through our platform. We make sure it’s confirmed before you start.
Set up payments (payouts) on your dashboard with a PayPal or Payoneer account before you start mentoring. You keep 80% of your earnings so the more you mentor, the more you earn. You can see pending and confirmed on your dashboard.
Take a look at our Payment Structure which includes some helpful examples.

We ensure payment occurs safely, before the service begins.  You can see on your dashboard when the payment has gone through. We hold the payment safely until the service completion deadline specified in the service.

On the service completion deadline it will be released to you and you’ll be notified. You click on Payouts on your dashboard and use PayPal or Payoneer to access funds.


It’s easy and secure! We can walk you through any questions any time.

Mentees rate you out of 5 for content knowledge, communication and overall recommendation. These ratings and reviews are compiled on your profile. Throughout the process, ask for feedback and receive it openly. 
When you receive feedback, make changes to your services if needed. Good reviews will help you get more business!
Check out our Resources to become the best possible mentor and take your business to the next level.

It’s up to you. When you post services, you set the fee for the service. These services are what mentees purchase.

Examples:

One hour exam preparation with sample question PDF included – $120

Five hours of case study discussion – $300 ($60/hour)

When choosing your rates, think about planning time and rates others have posted. Consider what you would have been able to pay before licensing. Start with what feels fair to you. You can always adjust your fees depending on how mentees respond!

Sure! These are a few tips from experienced mentors. If you’re a pro, feel free to send us your tips to add. We’re all about helping each other.

“Spend time on your profile. Use a professional image and include your profession in your tagline. Make your tagline clear and clever – that is what mentees see first. Complete your profile and service FAQs”.

“Always discuss scheduling and expectations with your mentees. Keep to the schedule and communicate clearly and regularly to set an example of how professionals communicate”.

“Adjust your services to what mentees are asking for and keep checking in to see what they need. You start to really care about how they are doing so that part is easy.”

“Create a detailed version of “My Licensing Journey”, a list of the steps you took to get where you are today. This will help you know exactly where each mentee is in the process. They will feel understood and confident in your services.”
