Yellow level
Mentoring skills can be trained, tested and certified. The CEET yellow program is for mentors and instructors who need to supervise (new) employees, so they can quickly be deployed independently and master their work professionally. It supports improved knowledge transfer, also meaning employees become more productive in less time.
Being a mentor is challenging. They often have built up a wealth of knowledge and information over many years of experience and tend to just advice their colleagues. But mentoring is more than just providing solutions. It requires a unique set of skills, in order to:
• Coach employees, pupils and trainees in the workplace, helping them to discover their own development needs
• Encourage and challenge employees, while only occasionally clarifying;
• Enable mentees to become effective problem solvers
• Know how to give good instruction or constructive feedback.
• Have the ability to inspire mentees
