Trust in Experience

For those who are hesitant to contact mentors personally, we recommend attending the public lecture series ‘Pasitikėk patirtimi’ (‘Trust in Experience’), organised by the VU Mentoring team. It is a great opportunity to get to know the mentors and to listen to valuable insights on the topics of personal and professional development.
