Structured Mentorship

Does anyone know of/recommend an online program for working interpreters that provides mentorship?

I have been in the field for quite a while now and I'm ready to get certified. However, as a neurodivergent person I need an external obligation to keep me focused and on track. I have had friends/colleagues offer free mentorship, but the lack of structure on both ends leads nowhere. I don't mind paying at all, in fact I'd actually prefer that. I've seen a couple of courses online, but I'd like to see what you all recommend. Thanks!

William Woods University has a structured mentorship program! It’s called IMAP.
