Workplace mentor course

What do you learn in the workplace mentor training program? 

Good guidance in the workplace makes a big difference. As a mentor, you guide (new) employees, interns, or trainees during their learning process and help them grow in their role.

In this training, you will learn how to provide guidance in the workplace as a mentor in a professional and coaching manner. You will receive practical tools to clarify expectations, provide feedback, discuss learning objectives, and monitor the learner's development.

We pay attention to communication, feedback, and coaching, but also to creating a safe and positive learning environment. You will learn to deal with different learning styles, expectations, and situations that may arise during workplace learning.

The training is strongly practice-oriented: you immediately translate the insights and techniques to your own work environment in the healthcare sector.
