The CFA Mentoring Program will inspire new leaders in the consumer advocacy sector.


This program will give early to mid-career consumer advocates an opportunity to learn from highly experienced professionals and develop new skills and perspectives that will enrich their professional lives.

The goals of the CFA Mentoring Program are:

  • to improve the participant’s effectiveness as a consumer advocate through the exchange of ideas, experiences and perspectives, and
  • to facilitate a network of alumni who are well placed to take up consumer representative roles in the future.


“Being a part of the CFA Mentoring Program this year has been really rewarding. It has given me the tools to not only develop my professional aspirations but to put them into action. Each piece of the program has opened my eyes to opportunities that are available for consumer advocates like me and I feel so encouraged and motivated now to go after my goals.”

Julia Davis, 2021 mentee.
