Mentoring Technology

STEP Mentoring takes mentoring to a new and dynamic level. The online mentoring tools guide students to think and work strategically using project-based instruction. Students collaborate with mentors on a comprehensive action plan that guides them to define clear goals and specific action items. The technology allows students and mentors to stay connected while problem solving. Mentors can provide input on all actions items. Students can update action items, input new action items, create short term and long term goals and even begin planning for a career after earning their post-secondary degree or certificate.

STEP Mentoring is the future of mentoring. Students enjoy building online relationships with mentors. Busy professionals who serve as mentors enjoy the convenience of the online mentoring experience. The technology can adapt to the changing goals and objectives of the students and allows for project specific feedback from mentors. Students and mentors can view current, real time updates of the tools, whenever they choose. The system is password protected and provides users with a safe and secure environment. STEP Mentoring is interactive and effective mentoring.
