Mentoring Scheme
To develop effectively through the Graduate Programme, our graduates are each assigned a personal mentor who they will establish a strong working relationship with during their graduate role. The mentoring scheme is designed for our graduates to be able to learn from senior colleagues as they are guided through the 2-year programme.
The mentors allocated to the graduates will be someone other than the graduate’s immediate line manager, to allow advice and support to be given in a constructive and open approach. The assigned mentors will be committing their time and effort to the mentoring process and to improving the mentee’s leadership competencies and management knowledge.
The mentoring relationship will also allow the graduate to gain advice in working towards Chartership status in their chosen discipline, whilst achieving appropriate competence and commitment standards.
