Hockey-Graphs
Mentorship Program
Overview
Inspired by Python’s Core Mentorship Program, we believe the best way to increase diversity in the hockey analytics community is to connect experienced and dedicated mentors with interested beginners. The aim of the Hockey-Graphs Mentorship Program (HMP) is to inspire people from various backgrounds, especially underrepresented persons, to contribute to the flourishing hockey analytics community.
This is where HMP mentors come in. Mentors will provide beginners with the support, guidance, and encouragement they need to 1) learn about statistics/analytics and 2) use that knowledge to answer questions pertaining to hockey. In addition to 1-on-1 mentoring, mentees will be given a tailored guide with additional resources to strengthen their knowledge and skills. Mentees will also receive priority access to various HMP-sponsored workshops and social events hosted at major hockey analytics conferences.
