Mentors

The delicate balance of mentoring someone is not creating them in your own image, but allowing them to create themselves.” — Steven Spielberg

As a mentor, you will

  • Help guide your mentee on his or her career path and assist with setting goals, identifying resources and networking opportunities for the mentee(s)
  • Provide Work experience and advice, motivational and role modelling support
  • Assist in personal development and positive growth mindset
  • Assist in the areas of interest identified in the programme

Mentoring is recommended at least once per week. Duration from 20 minutes to 1 hour per interaction.

  •  Any inaccessible days or time
  • The length of the mentoring relationship ( The 2 Academic terms, or 1 or 2 years)
  • What can the Mentor offer
  • What is the Mentee looking for? The purpose/area of interest that was identified on the registration form.
