The mentorship program is open to anyone over the age of 18 years at the time of the start of the program. 

All levels of experience are welcome. Past participants included college students, freelancers, graduate students, professional musicians and educators. 

Mentors will be assigned based on the winner’s career aspirations. Mentors include professionals with diverse portfolios across the world with a vast amount of experience. Applicants will have the opportunity to request a mentor and while there is no guarantee, IWBC strives to honor those requests as much as possible. 

The deadline for applications in the 2024 program is January 1, 2024 for mentees. Anyone interested in applying to be a mentor must apply before January 1, 2024.

Yes, previously chosen mentees are welcome to apply for future years of the program. Those who have already been chosen for a previous year will be guaranteed a spot in the full group sessions; however, priority for mentor pairing will go to new applicants. If there is availability, past mentees will be awarded a mentor based on a random drawing.
