No, the definition of a mentor is that they are a trusted advisor and expert in their field. We are serious about our mentors being what we say they are though, the Best Mentors in the world.
We understand that there are experts who are world class or top of their field who have never mentored anyone before. At Best Mentors, we want to provide an opportunity for those experts to become mentors, which is why we offer a comprehensive and prerequisite mentor training package as part of your sign up/ listing fee if you have never mentored previously.
We also make it part of our induction for all our mentors to complete the training as part of their sign up with Best Mentors prior to listing them on our Best Mentor Directory. This gives us as professionals the assurance of the quality of the mentors on our directory that they all know our service provision standards and our expectations of the mentors who are listed with Best Mentors.
By doing this those who are seeking mentoring services can have confidence that they are in the right place and indeed choosing from the Best Mentors in the world.
Knowing that you (and all our mentors) have completed the training provided by Best Mentors raises the bar, shows your commitment and increases your assurance that you have got what it takes to be the very best mentor possible. It can ensure that we are on the “same page” in relation to mentoring service provision and gives confidence that your clients are receiving the Best Mentoring solutions possible.
Completing the Best Mentors mentor training is not only informative and the best way to be assured that you are on the right track with your mentoring service provision, but it shows that you are dedicated and can offer mentees/proteges the best mentoring experience they can find anywhere in the world.
