Mentoring as a mentor

Where: Menu → Learn → Mentoring

Offer your time as a mentor. Each person who books you gets a private workspace with you, which only the two of you can open.

How to

Under “Offer my time”, fill in your profile and add free times.
When someone books, their workspace appears under “My mentorings”, and you get a notification.
In the workspace, write down the goal together, book further appointments for your mentee from your free times, and write notes after each appointment.
When the mentoring is over, use “Finish and archive”. If the person books you again later, a new workspace opens.

Fields and buttons

Overview: Goal, next appointment, appointments held and planned, and the next steps from your last notes.
Calls: “Voice call” and “Video call” ring your mentee; in the room you are both presenters. Mentoring rooms, also those of appointments, can’t be recorded or opened to others, and administrators can’t enter them.
Chat and files: Messages and files between you and your mentee. You can remove any file; messages only their author can delete.
Tasks and milestones: Set milestones for the stages of the mentoring and link tasks and courses to them: their progress follows those. You can mark a milestone reached by hand, reorder or remove it (its tasks stay).
Courses: Assign published courses to your mentee or yourself. Assigning gives access, also to restricted or paid courses, like an assignment to a class. Accept or remove what your mentee suggests. Taking a course out of the workspace leaves the access in place.
Appointments: Your free times, to book the next appointment for your mentee, and all appointments of the two of you with notes.
Finish and archive: Makes the workspace read-only. “Reopen” brings it back, unless the two of you already have a newer one.
Packages: Under “Offer my time”, bundle appointments into packages and choose “Appointments only with a package” if you want. Packages are free unless an administrator sets a price (under Mentoring → Packages & prices); paid ones go through the organisation’s checkout. A package someone took can only be switched off.
