CDE Alumni Mentorship Mid-Programme Meetup (Batch 11)

The spirit of mentorship and community was on full display at the CDE Alumni Mentorship Mid-Programme Meetup held on 30 April 2025. Approximately 60 mentors and mentees from Batch 11 took time out of their busy schedules to gather for an evening of meaningful conversation, reflection, and connection.
The event offered a valuable midpoint check-in for participants to catch up with their respective mentor or mentee, discuss their personal and professional growth, and set intentions for the second half of the programme. Beyond individual pairings, the meetup also fostered a broader sense of community as attendees mingled, networked, and shared experiences across mentorship pairs.
The warm, engaging atmosphere reflected the strength of the bonds formed since the programme’s kickoff and reaffirmed the value of alumni-student connections in shaping the next generation of CDE professionals.
