This course gives new mentors the initial knowledge, tools and strategies to enable them to support new teachers, new colleagues or even learners.

Programme aim

Unlike other mentoring courses, this enables education practitioners to put theory into practice and identify their practice in the theory that they will explore, building a community of mentoring within their organisations.

Who is this for?

This course is designed for Teachers, educators, and practitioners in the FE and skills sector.

Programme structure

4.5 hours (3 x 90 min sessions delivered live online or face-to-face. The final session must be delivered at least 1 month after the second session.)
