[IMPACT] Please describe your proposed solution.
A platform which matches up students and senior catalyst members.
[IMPACT] Please describe how your proposed solution will address the Challenge that you have submitted it in.
By having access to a mentor, a student can solve certain problems faster. Also a Mentor helps to focus attention and keeps motivated.
[IMPACT] What are the main risks that could prevent you from delivering the project successfully and please explain how you will mitigate each risk?
Shortage of Mentors
I do not know how available Catalyst members are so it is hard to predict, if there will be enough people willing to volunteer as a Mentor.
I do not have a good solution yet. But I will conduct a small poll shortly.
Quality of Mentoring
Because the actual Mentoring sessions will be private there is little oversight.
My Solution is a scoring system for mentors and a set of rules to follow.
