How does it work?
Mentoring allows professionals to meet and engage with one another, offering both parties the chance to progress, learn new skills and fulfil true potential.
During the mentoring-process the mentor will share their personal skills, knowledge and experience with the mentee to enable him or her to explore their personal and professional situation. It is a two-way process in which the mentor and mentee work together to set and achieve predetermined goals and objectives.
Why should I sign-up?
Mentoring is a reflective experience, enabling both the mentor and mentee to learn about different practices and how to apply them to their own situation.
Signing up for mentoring is a great opportunity to gain valuable insights and guidance tailored to your specific needs, nurturing personal and professional growth in a supportive environment.
Can I be a mentor and a mentee?
Yes! You can sign up to become either a mentor or mentee, or both!
Please note that only mentee profiles can view a list of their potential matches and send requests to mentors to connect.
Mentor profiles will not see a list of mentees and will wait until they receive an invitation to connect from a mentee.
Consider signing up as both to see a list of potential matches and connections!
