Mentors and mentees are encouraged to meet 2-4 times a year, and each mentoring arrangement should continue for at least the duration of that year. Any continuation beyond the year will be at the Mentor and Mentee's own will.
Upon the first meeting, mentees are expected to fill in the Mentoring Programme Worksheet. They can also keep a Meeting Log for subsequent meetings for good record tracking of their progress. Both Mentor and Mentee should fill in the Feedback Form at the end of the mentoring arranagement.
