Description

Quality mentoring rarely spreads by itself. It spreads through people who promote it into their training courses, their teams, their organisations and their networks. The Mentoring Competence Framework is a tool to raise the quality of mentoring support in volunteering projects. It provides clear and effective guidance for mentoring practitioners in the ESC Programme.

Would you like to work with the framework in your own trainings and workshops? Would you like to support mentors to develop their mentoring practice? Would you like to encourage organisations in your national network to build and improve their mentoring support?

If you want to refine quality mentoring, strategically or practically, we invite you to join “Strengthening Mentoring in European Solidarity Corps”, a training of trainers and multipliers built around the framework.

This training course is designed for trainers, facilitators, mentors, tutors, project coordinators, project managers and members of National Agencies who are involved in European Solidarity Corps activities and would like to improve mentoring practices and mentoring support in the European Solidarity Corps Programme.

During this training, you will get familiar with the Mentoring Competence Framework and prepare to work with it in your own context: as a TEC trainer or facilitator designing learning events, as a mentor or coordinator supporting volunteers, or as a National Agency working with TEC trainers and ESC organisations.
