The Université du Québec à Montréal’s continuing education department is offering a new modular mentoring program. This program comprises nine training courses for mentors and mentees who are involved in a professional integration or internship supervision process. The course topics include authentic and constructive communication between mentors and mentees; managing anxiety, effort, and perseverance; and unconscious bias in mentorship relationships. The program’s modular, independent structure ensures that training topic selection can be customized based on the trainer. UQAM continuing education coordinator Martine Bussières said that these courses are meant to better equip mentors and mentees to excel in their organizations.
