˙✧˖°🦃⋆。˚Hello Academy Team༄˖°.🍂.ೃ࿔*:・
In the spirit of the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday and Cupsgiving in our community, I thought it would be fun for us to come together and create a gratitude train. Our train will inspire fellowship and connection with fellow peers as well as kindness.
°•▪︎.🍁•.☕️.•🍁.▪︎•°
-------------------------
˗ˏˋGratitude Time´ˎ˗
Three Easy Steps to Participate
🐿️⋆.ೃ࿔*:・🥧༄⋆⭒˚。⋆🍂
1. Post something you are truly grateful for this year, 2024. It could be anything- a teacher who motivated you to not withdraw from a course, a meaningful experience such as a new travel destination, or even simple things which bring you joy such as watching the leaves fall in Autumn.
2. After sharing your gratitude be sure to tag three of your peers to encourage them to fellowship with us for Cupsgiving. This person will then create their own post and continue the train by tagging three people. You will be able to see all your peers at the bottom of this post, so feel free to copy and paste three names.
3. At the end we will have a thread full of gratitude, a gratitude train, connecting us as Academy Team Leaders.
When we share what we are grateful for, we inspire our peers to reflect on their own gratitude and this creates a dynamic positive ripple effect. It's a fun way to fellowship as a Team.

Hi everyone! I hope you are well. A few days ago I announced the start of a new academy recognition initiative focused on our academy mentors, mentor leaders and ambassadors. All three can be left positive reviews which we will be showcasing at the end of every month. Lets take a look at all the mentors who got positive reviews in the month of October. Academy mentors can choose to focus on two academy programs, I will tag the program they got reviewed for.
🔔Give the gift of recognition to an academy mentor who has helped you in your academy journey by submitting a review here [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf2XnrHWY9kCWIuRyfrEyODlTnHTJOnk0HQ22orLGRneCorVg/viewform]
Lets look at the reviews!

* Petite was very supportive throughout my internship. Anytime I had a question or concern, they were right on top of it. They checked in on me regularly and made sure I had everything set. Throughout a pretty rough ordeal towards the end of the internship, Petite was supportive, understanding, and patient as I worked through it all. In addition, they made sure I was successful and pleased with my Internship journey. They're the best!

Honoring Academy Mentors: Monthly Review Highlights and Certificate

Hi everyone! I hope you're doing well. I’m excited to share a new way to spotlight the hard work of our academy mentors.
While the mentor review form and academy awards are not new, we’re now taking an extra step to showcase the positive reviews our mentors receive. Every month, I’ll be posting a summary of all the new reviews submitted for academy mentors across any program.
Additionally, any mentor who receives 10 positive reviews, no matter how long it takes, will be awarded a Mentor Appreciation Certificate. After every 10 reviews, their count resets, allowing them to earn another certificate.
As trainees and interns, your feedback is crucial. If a mentor has gone the extra mile for you, let us know by submitting a review.
You can still nominate mentors for an Academy Award, and both mentor leaders and ambassadors can be recognized through this initiative too.
