Online Mentoring Program
The Online Mentoring Program is a web-enabled personal development application that facilitates the mentoring process. This online application helps potential mentees assess their developmental needs and tap into networks of pre-qualified mentors so they can identify the best person available to mentor them. This is simplified through an automated matching feature that draws potential mentors from a pre-qualified pool. Once they are paired, mentees and mentors manage and measure the effectiveness of their mentoring relationships through the application.
This application makes it possible for all areas of an organisation or industry sector to share ideas and practices central to the organisation, by tearing down time-distance barriers that often impede traditional mentoring relationships. This same feature also assists individual users who want a mentoring partner outside their immediate geographical area. The result is a better informed, diversified, capable sector and more adaptable, knowledgeable individuals.
We can provide clients with a choice of blended mentoring solutions to build performance, skills and knowledge. The Centre for Organisation Development has developed an application where the client is always in control - to make their own decisions, to do what's best for their organisation, and to build their own mentoring solution.
