Mentorship
Join the LED Lab Mentor Network and help shape the future of Digital Asset Management (DAM) in Canada. As a volunteer mentor, you will have the opportunity to share your expertise with undergraduate students working on industry-focused DAM projects and contribute valuable insights to graduate-level research initiatives. Your experience can help bridge the gap between academia and industry while supporting the next generation of DAM professionals.
Mentoring through the LED Lab is more than giving back—it is an opportunity to build meaningful connections with emerging talent, engage with innovative research, expand your professional network, and contribute to advancing the DAM field. Whether you can offer guidance on a project, provide industry perspectives, or collaborate on research discussions, your involvement will create lasting impact for students, researchers, and the broader DAM community.

Mentors Feedbacks:
“I really enjoyed answering an array of questions from my cohort, covering DAM best practices, implementation scenarios, troubleshooting through items they were working on in their project, and cultivating a safe space for learning and collaboration. I could see, session to session, how each student stepped up, grew, and became more proficient and curious about the DAM field. I could tell they demonstrably made a solid effort in developing their DAM skill set and that pace was accelerated through access to an expert mentor.”
Students Feedbacks:
“My mentorship experience was very positive. It was helpful to talk with someone who has real-world experience in the industry, and it made the course material feel much more connected to actual professional work. It was encouraging to get practical advice and hear honest insights about how DAM is used beyond the classroom.”
“I love meeting with students who are trying to understand the complexity of DAM and seeing it through their eyes. I have mentored twice now and have learned something new each time. It gives me an opportunity to consider my own ability to effectively communicate DAM.”
