Mentoring

Operation Unite® is involved in connecting real mentors in the water industry with people who have interest in training and education in vocational and academic schools. Our participation is through mentor clubs organized through professional organizations and schools and Operation Unite's "Meet Your Mentor®" internet Living Water® radio program.

The program series develops an understanding of what is important to pursue and maintain a high standard of applied knowledge and integrity in a changing world. Mentors may be hydrogeologists, water sanitation technicians, water rights attorneys, water lab tech, engineering geologist, to mention a few.

Each mentor has a blog during the radio series that begins when the show first broadcasts and continues, for one additional year, after the last show of the mentor's series is broadcasted. Chat rooms, Skype calls, GoToMeeting and physical meetings are periodically scheduled based on listener requests and mentor travel schedules.

Tune in to Living Water® internet radio and contact us with your interests and ideas.
