Mentorship Program
Find Your Guide
TREC’s Mentorship Program matches young professionals (age 35 and under) with senior commercial real estate leaders to cultivate the skills and tools needed to accelerate their careers. Throughout the five-month program, our mentor/mentee pairings develop actionable career development plans and the strategies necessary for achievement.
Please note: Space is limited. Each applicant must have a current TREC membership. Preference will be given to applicants engaged in TREC activities and those who have not participated in the program before.
Contact Emily Ballentine with any questions.
Applications for the 2026 Mentorship Program will open Monday, February 2.
