YANG launches 2025 mentorship program

The program is free to participate for anyone under the age of 40 who joins the YANG community

Bethesda Md.—The Young Auto Care Network Group (YANG), a community of the Auto Care Association, recently launched its 2025 YANG Mentorship Program. Now, in its third year, YANG received a significant level of interest averaging 75 mentee and 14 volunteer mentor participants in the program. The program is free to participate for anyone under the age of 40 who joins the YANG community. 

Mentorship Circles 
Each YANG mentee will rank industry- specific topics by preference to form mentorship circles. Examples of topics include: Navigating the Aftermarket; Moving Up the Ladder; How to Grow Your Career; Entrepreneurism; Aftermarket Career Journey; and more. Each mentorship circle consisted of approximately five mentees and one mentor focused on a unique circle topic.  

Groups will be assigned after the registration closes on Nov. 30.  Participants will then join the YANG Mentorship Program Kick-Off Meeting in January 2025. Each Mentor Circle meets once per quarter in 2025. The program takes place January 2025 through December 2025. 

Experiencing the pillars of YANG 
The goal of the Mentorship Program is for the YANG mentees to experience all three YANG pillars in one program: Networking, Professional Development, and Giving Back. Through this unique, small-grouped mentorship program, mentees will benefit from the wisdom of experienced and successful aftermarket veterans.  

The YANG Mentorship Program is designed for young professionals in the automotive aftermarket who are passionate about their growth and development. The program provides opportunities for members to focus on individual professional goals, while acquiring the tools to become tomorrow’s leaders.
