Health Peer Mentoring
A peer mentor is an experienced student within the Faculty of Health in the same or similar course to you, who will support your transition to life as a Deakin student.
You can:
Mentor drop-in sessions
Can’t make it to a meeting or haven’t signed up for a mentor? Mentor drop-in sessions are run by experienced Health peer mentors and open to all Health students.
Trimester 3 drop-in sessions are being held online. You don’t need to register for these sessions, simply join the Zoom session (please copy and save the link below) at the session time.
Please note that these sessions provide general advice and support, with specific assignment support available via Study Assistance.
A recap of key mentor program topics covered each week can be found on the Faculty of Health CloudDeakin site.

Deakin's peer mentoring program is excellent! I recommend that all first years should sign up to this free program as it is a great way to not only learn, but form new friendships with students in your course!
