The Audio Developer Conference is excited to announce the return of the ADC Mentorship Program for 2024!
The ADC Mentorship program is centered around the Audio Developer Conference (ADC) to help encourage interaction between experienced members of the audio software community, and those who are just coming into it.
A few of the ADC Mentorship Program goals are to:
- Foster a welcoming and inclusive environment
- Encourage communication in the community
- Promote diversity among members
For mentees, if you are new to the audio development community and would like to enhance your network, and receive guidance and support toward navigating your future in the industry, the ADC Mentorship Program is an excellent way to get started.
“I was super grateful for this opportunity, I think it's a great initiative and would love to see it continue.”--Felicia Koolhoven, Software Engineering Graduate & ADC Mentee
For mentors, if you are an experienced member of the audio community who would like to give back, you have come to the right place!
“Thank you so much for organizing this! Programs like this make the industry more accessible and welcoming to newcomers and experienced folks too.”--Jorge Garcia, Audio Software Engineer at Electronic Arts & ADC Mentor
