Ready-to-run programs
that last year after year.
Out of Office Labs gives schools, districts, and organizations the complete templates, guides, and tools they need to launch a mentorship program — and keep it running no matter who's in charge.
Every student deserves
a path to someone who's been there.
Mentorship changes outcomes — but only when the program behind it is built to last. We give coordinators, counselors, and program directors the structure they need to launch quickly, run consistently, and hand off confidently.
Every kit works whether you're starting fresh or adding structure to a program already in progress. Customize the details and you're running — without starting over.
The principles behind
everything we build.
Built to last, not just launch
A program with documented templates and clear processes keeps running when staff turns over, semesters change, and budgets shift. We build for year three, not just day one.
Relationships are the outcome
Documents and templates are just scaffolding. The real result is a student who has someone in their corner — and an alum who stayed connected.
Done beats perfect
A mentorship program that launches imperfectly this semester does more good than a perfect one that launches never. We build for momentum.
Built for real constraints
We design for the counselor doing three jobs, the chapter president with 18 credit hours, and the advisor who volunteers on weekends. Real life, not ideal conditions.
Handoff-ready by design
Every kit is built so the next coordinator can open it, understand it, and run it — without needing to track down the person who built it.
Outcomes over activity
We measure what matters — relationships formed, goals met, alumni who stayed engaged — not just meetings held or forms submitted.
Schools, districts,
and Greek organizations.
We started in K–12 schools, helping administrators and counselors run mentorship programs that fit inside the school day without requiring extra staff.
We expanded into Greek organizations because the opportunity is the same: alumni who want to give back, students who need mentors, and a gap between the two that structured programming closes.
Both worlds need the same thing — structure that makes the human connection possible, then gets out of the way.
We've done the workso you don't have to.
Every template, handbook, and worksheet in our kits has been built from real mentorship programs — not from a whiteboard. The experience is already in the documents. You just add your details.
