The US Composting Council continues to grow the organics recycling industry with a twelve-pair, 2019 cohort of mentor mentee pairs, the program’s fifth year. The program connects mentors with professional business experience in the compost manufacturing and collection industry to participate with a mentee, a Young Professional college graduate or industry employee over the age of 21 and under 40.
The annual mentoring period runs from July 1, 2019 through January 31, 2020. Mentor/Mentee pairs choose their own meeting schedule and format (phone, Skype, in person, email etc.) and are encouraged to make an in-person “capstone” meeting.
