MENTORING

Suitable for

It’s important that both a mentee and a mentor are aware of what is expected of
them during the mentoring process. Therefore, this e-learning course is suitable for a
wide array of users:

• Directors • Supervisors

• Team Leaders • Employees

Overview

Mentoring, in a business sense, is a relationship between two people with the goal of
professional and personal development. The mentor is usually an experienced
individual who shares knowledge, experience, and advice with a less experienced
person – the mentee.

There are many similarities between coaching and mentoring, but perhaps one of the
main differences is that a mentor is often an expert, or at least highly experienced, in
the area they are mentoring in, whereas a coach needn’t be.

Some mentors focus on helping their mentees develop their career path by giving
advice on things like how to progress ‘up the ladder’. Others see their role as
supporting the mentee as a person and focusing on how they can help them develop
as individuals. There’s a great deal of variety in mentoring situations and the
approaches mentors use. Some can be quite challenging and require the mentor to
adapt to the situation and be flexible. This mentoring e-learning course sets out to
provide users with a wide understanding of the role of mentoring as well as a key set
of tools that they can transfer to the workplace.

Although this e-learning course is predominantly aimed at the mentor, it is equally
useful for mentee and will give both an understanding of what is expected of them.
