Answer 1

Answer:

Mentoring Plan.

Explanation:

This is a form of a continuous schooling process that is more of ‘giving advice’, or passing on what your experience was in a particular area or situation.

It is a system of semi structured guidance whereby one person shares their knowledge, skills and experience to assist others to progress in their own lives and careers. Mentors need to be readily accessible and prepared to offer help as the need arises within agreed bounds.

Mentors very often have their own mentors, and in turn their mentees might wish to ‘put something back’ and become mentors themselves - it's a chain for ‘passing on’ good practice so that the benefits can be widely spread.
