When you look back, you may identify some people having a remarkable impact your professional and personal life. You may also notice what was in common in your relationship with all these people. Going forward, wouldn’t it be nice to get inspiration from such people in your life, and similarly, to inspire others, new generations, your team members and community in a much more effective and structured way?
Developmental Mentoring, as a mutual learning approach, enables that in the most effective manner.

As defined by EMCC Global:
“Mentoring is a learning relationship, involving the sharing of skills, knowledge, and expertise between a mentor and mentee through developmental conversations, experience sharing, and role modelling. The relationship may cover a wide variety of contexts and is an inclusive two-way partnership for mutual learning that values differences.”
A properly designed mentoring program accelerates the development of its stakeholders. For that purpose EMCC Global has developed certain standards (ISMCP) as a benchmark to ensure the effectiveness of mentoring programs.

As detailed by EMCC Global:
“Following the framework within the ISMCP (International Standards for Mentoring and Coaching Programmes) accreditation adds both substance and credibility to programmes, and bolsters internal business cases for employee development. The framework ensures programmes are designed to align with participant and business objectives, under the professional umbrella of the EMCC Global standards and Global Code of Ethics.

ISMCP is an independent accreditation awarded to organisations designing, delivering and evaluating mentoring and/or coaching programmes either ‘in-house’ or externally. It is an integral and essential step on the path to establishing the professional credibility and status of good mentoring and/or coaching programme management, ensuring programmes are thoughtfully designed, systematically managed and significantly contributing to the development of participants, strategic drivers of the organisation and wider stakeholder objectives”

In that respect this course not only equip mentors and mentees with all necessary competences and but also ensures that our participants learn about the best benchmarking tool to design, evaluate and execute mentoring programs.
Workplace mentoring is a powerful tool for developing talent, fostering collaboration, and driving organizational growth. Yet, many mentoring programs fail to deliver real impact—not because of a lack of good intentions, but because mentors and mentees often lack the skills to make these relationships truly effective. It may come in various forms, not only the traditional senior / junior relationship, but also in the forms of “reverse mentoring” and “peer mentoring”.

Whether you’re launching a new mentoring initiative or strengthening an existing one, this program provides a structured approach to building impactful and sustainable mentoring relationships.

Why Invest in Mentor Training?
A strong mentoring culture doesn’t just benefit individuals—it strengthens entire organizations. When leaders mentor effectively, they accelerate talent development, improve employee engagement, and foster cross-functional collaboration. More importantly, they create a culture where learning is continuous, and leadership is developed at every level.
Transform mentoring from an informal practice into a structured, high-impact leadership skill.
