This women-only mentoring programme is delivered by the Centre of Learning, sponsored by Advance Coaching. 
 
Mentoring is a developmental partnership through which the Mentor shares knowledge, skills, information, perspective and networks to support the Mentee in personal, professional and/or business development. It is a professional relationship based upon trust and respect.
 
One of our longest standing programmes, it has grown from strength to strength, with over 300 successful and inspirational business women now gifting their time and expertise to support and guide many women in business members. At its heart this programme promotes a core aim of the network to support women at all stages of their career and business development.

The Centre of Learning offers places on the programme three times per annum, matching 30 Mentors with 30 Mentees for a 12-month programme of mentoring support. As a result, we are continually recruiting experienced and accomplished women, who are willing to gift their knowledge and expertise to other women at an earlier stage in their careers.
 
Advance Coaching delivers an onboarding session to both Mentees and Mentors:

What is a Mentor?
Mentors are drawn from a wide range of business and professional backgrounds, assisting their Mentee in career or business development through information & skills transfer, confidence building and sharing of networks.

The Mentor will be able to offer valuable knowledge, empathy and insight due to their own many years of experience.

As a Mentor you will be given the opportunity to connect with other Mentors at dedicated CPD and networking events.
How will it help mentees?
Mentoring is most effective when it is driven by the Mentee. Therefore, Mentees will take ownership, through a Mentoring Agreement, to be active, fully engaged, curious, open to challenge and willing to stretch their development and learning.

Training will be provided for Mentees to ensure they are fully prepared to harvest all the opportunities of the time spent with their Mentor.

“My mentor (Joanna) & I are getting on great! It was a super match – we have loads in common & each catch up is like old friends meeting for coffee. I had requested somebody to help ease me into networking – she’s great! She has guided me into groups (some of which have potential to pay off), is my wing woman; and we are planning a couple more ‘big days out’! Work, with lots of fun!”

“We had a beautiful relationship and it was pretty much lead by her in terms of what she wanted and where she was in life and work. She works in a very intuitive way and follows her guts and what she senses. I feel that our sessions were very useful and helped her gravitated and anchor some concepts and then her intuition told her to get our mentoring to a close, so we did. ”

“Christine is a fantastic mentor, offering me loads of practical advice and morale support. We have been focusing on ways to improve my confidence at work and in myself generally, and I’m already seeing a huge improvement there. Christine has been a great sounding board to brainstorm with, and is always so approachable and kind. I’m really grateful to the team at Centre of Learning for running the initiative and for putting me in touch with Christine.”
