DescriptionThis course is available only through administrator booking. Priority will be given to NHSE WT&E Thames Valley and Wessex Educational Supervisors, appraisers and staff who mentor or intend to mentor colleagues. The programme works through three stages of mentoring, highlighting the skills that underpin effective practice, using a mixture of taught inputs, demonstration by tutors, small group skills practice, group discussions, and pairs work. The model used for training is applicable to both managing problems and developing opportunities. It is widely used in both public and private sector organisations. Attendance on all dates is required. Please note that each day will start promptly at 09.00 using the link provided.
Additional information

Participants spend a significant proportion of time practising skills using their own real life issues, with feedback from experienced tutors and facilitators during skill practice sessions.

Participants work in trios, with a facilitator, learning from the three roles of mentor, mentee and observer. Reflective practice is encouraged, as is engaging in peer support activities. Practical and professional issues arising from mentoring in the workplace are discussed and participants are encouraged to plan how they will take forward the skills back at work.

Details of the course handbook and the course textbook, Coaching & Mentoring at Work (Connors & Pokora, 2017 3rd Ed.) will be provided in order that participants purchase this book to support their learning on the course.
