ROTARY E-MENTORING
A project of the Rotary E-Club of Latinoamérica
District 4200 Mexico

The rules

 

The Mentoring relationship is set far apart from job practice and internships. Once the professional orientation mission (“landing”) is finished, the Pupil will need to go through professional practice but will not need orientation. This is particularly stressed, as a relationship between Mentor and Pupil when the Pupil goes through practice is considered highly inadequate. Pupil runs the risk of over imposing work “visions” by his boss and Mentor.

Frequency of messages:
- The frequency of the messages are left to each mentoring pair.
- It is expected that E-Mentoring will take less than an hour a week.

Mentors responsibilities:
- To read, sign and abide by the E-Mentoring agreement.
- Demonstrate a willingness to commit to the E-Mentoring process.
- Show willingness to email Pupils on a regular basis.
- As a Mentor, the onus is to instigate contact should it become infrequent.
- Mentors should respond within 2 working days to any e-mail messages sent by their Pupils.
- Give feedback to co-ordinators with the trimensual report.

Pupils responsibilities:
- To read, sign and abide by the E-Mentoring agreement.
- To be proactive in their student development by engaging with E-Mentoring.
- To participate in open and honest discussions with their Mentor.
