This programme gives students the opportunity to develop an understanding of the crucial role of the mentor. It enables the participant to develop the professional skills required of a mentor and reflect upon and evaluate the process of mentoring in the context appropriate to their working situation.
This course provides opportunities for students to reflect upon and critically analyse the wider issues with regard to partnership in organisations that undertake mentoring. This is a work-based course which accredits the role of work-based mentors working with mentees. It enables mentors to use the experience they have got in this field and work towards a postgraduate qualification. Students can also use the credits from this course towards an MA in Education Studies.
