Preparing to Be a Mentorship Facilitator
Preparing to Be a Mentorship Facilitator
Mentorships are valuable tools to support career exploration and enhancement. For mentees, mentorships offer opportunities to increase their professional knowledge and networks. For mentors, mentoring allows them to enhance their leadership and communication skills and gain new community connections.

The MentorAbility approach focuses on supporting career development for job seekers while strengthening relationships with employers. This approach offers multiple benefits to participating employment professionals.
During this course we explore:
