E – Mentoring

Introduction of
the Program:
Mentorship, if provided at the right
stage in one’s life can accelerate one’s
growth journey tremendously. For
adolescents from vulnerable
communities, access to education itself
is a significant challenge, leave alone
finding the right mentors, in most cases,
these are first generation learners and
lack adequate guidance and support
from parents.

WCF’s E Mentoring program facilitates

interactions between students and WNS employees
from across the world. These interactions open up a whole
new world to children & encourage them to think differently.

These interactions give them new cultural insights, builds their

self – confidence, and empowers them to dream big. Our Aim is
to provide a role model since the children are looking for one.

A small amount of time can make a lasting positive impact in the

young person’s life.

Most of the children had no Exposure to the latest technology

and unaware of medium of Communication which is important
for them to shape their vision. WNS introduced the E – Mentoring
Program for children in India from Grade 7th,8th, 9th & 10th with
a medium of email exchange/What’s app/Voice & Video Call for
India & International WNS Employees (mentors).
