Commitment required

An important part of building a successful mentoring partnership is the commitment you both give to make the relationship work and help mentees to achieve their goals. The programme will take place from the autumn and we recommend that you meet approximately once a month.

The University of Winchester asks that you both:

1. Attend an induction workshop in October, which will probably be virtual. 2. Decide together when to meet and what you will cover in the meetings. 3. Agree your preferred method of communication between you, and share contact details, email is well suited as it is a common means of communication in graduate roles. 4. Aim to meet once every three to five weeks during the programme. 5. Keep meetings durations to 45 mins - 1 hour. 6. Be flexible as you can when arranging times and dates to meet. 7. Keep in contact with each other and give plenty of notice if you need to rearrange. 8. Keep in contact with us and attend the celebration event in May or June.
