The NIBA Mentoring Program caters to young professionals in the general insurance industry, offering them a platform to grow and excel.
The program empowers young professionals to enhance their industry knowledge, establish clear development objectives, and reach new heights of achievement by engaging in dynamic mentoring partnerships with experienced industry leaders.
Spanning over 12 weeks, the program offers a range of learning and development opportunities. Participants will engage in three interactive face-to-face group workshops, benefit from two insightful webinars, and participate in seven dedicated mentee/mentor sessions.
The program will kick off in August. Review the NIBA Mentoring Program page on NIBA’s website for the full schedule and key dates.
Who can be a mentor?
NIBA mentors have a broad range of life and work experiences and display a strong understanding of industry issues. It is vital that mentors are committed to the personal and professional development of their mentee and are prepared to be involved in all aspects of the program. Mentors are required to abide by the NIBA Mentoring Code of Practice at all times.
Who can be a mentee?
NIBA identifies mentees as young professionals already working within the industry. For the mentoring process to succeed, mentees must:
• Take responsibility for their own learning and development;
• Be open to different perspectives;
• Take on the challenges and tasks set as part of the program;
• Be able to accept appropriate feedback and coaching .
