| Question | Answer |
| Informal Mentoring | Where relationships develop on their own, This type of mentoring tends to be one off or as and when required. |
| Formal Mentoring | Assigned relationships, in which the organisation oversees and guides the mentoring program in order to promote employee development. This type of mentoring will more than likely last a period of time i.e. 3-6 months. |
| Induction Mentoring | Could be assigned to you if you are new to an environment, to help you orientate yourself to procedures, policies, personnel, sources of help and information and to help you ‘survive’ your first few weeks. This type of mentoring is more short lives just until the mentee finds their feet. |
| Peer Mentoring | A more experienced person helping a less experienced person. Peer mentoring should be about progress and development, and be equally supportive of each partner. A peer is someone of the same level, but more experienced. For example, a prisoner helping another prisoner. |
| Remote/Distance/E-mentor | This is where the mentoring takes place at a distance. Remote mentoring has been on the increase, with technologies such as Teams and Zoom playing a vital part in keeping people connected and feeling together. |
| Group Mentoring | A group of people are matched to a mentor, normally a structure will be provided to the mentor, but they will have the freedom to mentor the group with their own chosen activities. This may be found on a practical course where several learners need to be shown/learn the same thing. |
| Buddy Scheme | Could be assigned to a new starter or someone who is struggling or happen organically, if a mentee sees someone they can trust, they may ask them to mentor them. This type of mentoring can be very flexible and on an as and when basis, although as a mentor you should always make time to ‘check in’ on your buddy at regular intervals. |
| Developmental Mentoring | An experienced mentor helps a mentee to develop their strengths and potential, to identify any changing needs, values and aspirations, and what's most important to the mentee. They work with the mentee to plan their professional development, and their next career steps. These are normally found in careers development and universities, although any workplace could have this scheme. |
