Mentoring Awareness eLearning Course

Overview

Mentoring can be a very positive experience for the employee being mentored and the mentor themselves. By passing on their greater experience, mentors play a crucial role in accelerating the development of the mentee and keep valuable knowledge circulating.

There are many skills that can contribute to a successful mentor/mentee relationship. Training gives a clearer picture of what these are and how they help.

Mentoring lets individual employees access a mentor's experience and expertise in one-to-one conversations. The mentee then applies these insights to fuel their own professional and personal development.

This course outlines the key features of mentoring, contrasting it with coaching, as the two terms are often used interchangeably. It will help you identify potential mentees - and mentors - and set up more effective mentoring partnerships.
