Our region’s colleges and universities are critical, priceless assets that need to be supported, nurtured and developed. The Higher Education Collaboration is a partnership with business and engineering schools at 14 of the region's foremost colleges and universities to create and retain an effective workforce.
RBC Mentor Network. Every academic year, each of the 14 Schools of Business and Engineering in the Collaboration recommends six students, based on academic performance, to participate in the RBC Mentor Network. These students are then individually paired with a CEO or top Executive of an RBC company to receive practical, “real world” knowledge and post-graduate opportunities. Students interested in participating in the 2011-2012 Mentor Network can download an application form here.
