# Scholars and Guides

The Scholars and Guides Program is a mentorship program for conference attendees interested in having someone experienced show them around and someone less-experienced have a helpful person around to navigatep a new situation. [You can read more and apply here on railsconf.org](https://railsconf.org/get-involved?ref=rubycentral.org).

## What is a Scholar?

Scholars, or mentees, are people new to the Ruby and Rails communities and looking to make professional connections. Scholars are paired with a Guide, or mentor, who will be available throughout the event to offer insight and advice on programming, working as a developer, and helping you build long-lasting connections with influential community members.

## What is a Guide?

Guides are volunteer mentors and will support the Scholars through mentorship, guidance, and professional networking leading up to and during a Ruby or Rails conference. Guides are familiar with the Ruby and/or Rails community, help create networking opportunities, and help the Scholar navigate a professional conference.

[Apply to be a scholar or guide here](https://railsconf.org/get-involved?ref=rubycentral.org#scholars-guides)!
