The role of mentee isn't restricted to early-career members or in training. As long as you are an ESC Professional Member and/or a Silver/Gold Member of one of the ESC Associations, you are eligible to sign up as a mentee in the programme.

To become a mentor, you must be an ESC Professional Member and/or a Silver/Gold Member of one of the ESC Associations. However, we encourage in priority Fellows of the ESC, Fellows of an ESC Association or Emeritus Fellows to sign up as mentors.

Note that a mentor can be both a mentor and a mentee at the same time if desired.
