Specialist e-mentoring

We have been helping provide secure internet-based mentoring for young and vulnerable people since 2002.

Mentoring allows people who are skilled either in specific areas or in general life skills, to help people with less experience, as they work to establish their own aspirations and how they might achieve their goals.

Although primarily used in conjunction with face to face mentoring, secure e-mail based mentoring does have a number of advantages:

• It can be done anywhere
• It can be done at any time
• It encourages honest feedback
• Both mentors and mentees have time to give considered responses
• It can be less demanding on coordinator and mentor's time
• There is a record of all that takes place
