LINKS Mentoring Program - Training for Mentors

Look­ing for oppor­tu­ni­ties to devel­op your lead­er­ship skills and give back to the emerg­ing remote health work­force as a mentor?

Effec­tive men­tor­ing rela­tion­ships are ben­e­fi­cial for men­tors, mentees and their work organ­i­sa­tions. This learn­ing mod­ule will pre­pare you to act as a men­tor to a recent grad­u­ate, or even an expe­ri­enced health pro­fes­sion­al need­ing sup­port in a par­tic­u­lar area.

We rec­om­mend you com­plete this course before par­tic­i­pat­ing in the LINKS Men­tor­ing Pro­gram as a mentor. 

Over­ar­ch­ing goals of this module

• Assist health prac­ti­tion­ers to devel­op or refresh knowl­edge and skills about men­tor­ing and what’s involved in a men­tor­ing rela­tion­ship for both men­tors and mentees (in both infor­mal or for­mal men­tor­ing agree­ments, such as LINKS).
• Sup­port the devel­op­ment of trans­fer­able lead­er­ship capabilities.
• Build work­force capac­i­ty and oppor­tu­ni­ties for recent grad­u­ates, ear­ly career pro­fes­sion­als and those new to rur­al and remote practice.
