What's Happening in the SW Section?

The Southwest Section of PA APA is pleased to announce the formal launch of its Mentor Telemachus program!  

Section council developed the Mentor Telemachus program as a result of our 2019 strategic focus on mentorship in the southwestern PA region. Mentor Telemachus has been carefully designed to bring practicing professionals and students together in ways that enrich the quality of the student experience through face-to-face and e-mentoring interactions with experienced, practicing planning professionals. It is the intent of the program to be open to not only planning students but also those in related studies such as architecture, geography, public administration, etc. Additionally, the Section is seeking to improve our connections with colleges and universities across the region with the aim of working together to cultivate clear connections between classroom and practice. 

Our first Mentor Telemachus program is underway! Head over to our news page for some photos from one of our kickoff events at Pitt.
