The WTS New Jersey Chapter Mentoring Program is an excellent program that provides a forum for emerging professionals in transportation seeking development of the skills necessary to achieve success in both their professional and personal lives. The benefits for mentors and mentees include networking, candid conversations, and confidence building. Other benefits include hearing career success stories from women leaders and creating long-term relationships. The mentee and mentor one-on-one meetings afford unique access to industry leaders and their insight.
