As part of the Mentorship Program, the next meeting between the winners of the “Yükseliş” (Ascension) competition and students was held. The winner of the second “Yükseliş” competition, Khanbaba Sultanli, met with Sanan Veyselov, a fourth-year student from the Faculty of Special Equipment and Technology at Azerbaijan Technical University (AzTU), who was accepted into the program.
During the meeting, Khanbaba Sultanli discussed the initial steps needed to develop skills, acquire new knowledge, and accurately define career goals. He provided insights on reforms aimed at enhancing competitiveness through the successful implementation of new projects and the use of innovative technologies. Sultanli also listened to the student’s perspectives on these topics and shared the planned steps for the future progression of the Mentorship Program.
In response, AzTU student Sanan Veyselov expressed his interest in participating in projects that would contribute to his professional development and thanked the organizers for the opportunity and the productive meeting.
The primary goal of the Mentorship Program is to enable third- and fourth-year students to benefit from the management experience of “Yükseliş” competition winners and receive guidance for their future careers. At the conclusion of the program, the competition winners will provide recommendation letters to the participating students. The program, initiated under the auspices of the “Yükseliş” competition, has admitted 65 students, selected based on their resumes and motivation letters. The program is expected to continue until the end of June 2024.
It is noteworthy that the selection process for the Mentorship Program, including the submission of students’ resumes and motivation letters, is facilitated by AzTU’s Career and Employment Center.
The “Yükseliş” competition was established by a decree signed by President Ilham Aliyev on July 26, 2019, with the aim of identifying, supporting, and fostering promising leaders with high intellectual and managerial capabilities, as well as creating a talent pool for the country.
