Long before mentoring was our plan here at Dallas Baptist University, it was God’s plan for each of us. Proverbs 27:17 says that “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another." The Center for Mentoring on our campus is here to help DBU students connect with those who can help them grow academically, spiritually, and professionally. I invite you to browse the resources on this site, and please visit our office or contact us if we can be of service.

Flash mentoring is defined as a one-time meeting or discussion that enables an individual to learn and seek guidance from a more experienced person who can pass on relevant knowledge and experience. The purpose of flash mentoring is to provide a valuable learning opportunity for less experienced individuals while requiring a limited commitment of time and resources for more experienced individuals serving as mentors.

Flash Mentoring, also known as one-time mentoring, is a way for DBU students to leverage the mentor program and connect with DBU alumni. It’s a fantastic opportunity for a student mentee to explore a role, industry, or learn more about working abroad, getting an MBA, law school, leading a Church, or more!
