We're excited to announce today that we are piloting a Zindi Mentorship Programme where promising young data scientists have the opportunity to be mentored by the best of the best on Zindi's platform. This is open to any Zindi user, from complete beginner up to intermediate data scientist.

If you think you can be a rising star in the African data science scene and you could benefit from a mentor, you're invited to apply! Please fill out this application form for a chance to be selected for this exciting new programme. Please note that places are limited, so make sure you fill this application out to the best of your ability. The deadline to complete the form is Friday 22 May 2020 12:00 GMT.

We aim to start the program in June. If you do not hear from us by 31 May 2020, it means you were not selected for this cohort, but we will keep your application on file for future opportunities. We look forward to welcoming you on board!

As this is a pilot programme, many details are as yet unconfirmed. We will keep you all informed about further details as they become available. Feel free to leave your questions in the comments.
