FIA’s National Mentoring Program 2021-2022
CFRE POINTS: 6
FREE FOR ALL FIA MEMBERS
Participating in FIA’s National Mentoring Program is your opportunity to gain advice, offer support and improve your understanding of the non-profit sector. This program is a free benefit of your FIA membership. During the eight-month program, we ask that mentors and mentees meet for a minimum of four 90-minute sessions which can be either face-to-face or online. Each partnership is unique and can be customised to suit the busy schedules and communication styles of your pairing. FIA provides you with a toolkit of resources to help establish your partnership and to support you as either the mentor or mentee, as you work on professional goals together. HOW IT WILL HELP YOUR CAREER
Research from Sun Microsystems showed that those who joined a professional program as mentors were six times more likely to get promoted, with retention rates at a high 69 per cent, compared to 49 per cent for people not involved in a mentoring program. These statistics are correlated to mentors being able to hone their interpersonal skills in listening, coaching, networking and providing constructive feedback. These skills are essential for readying professionals for leadership roles. Applications will open in June 2022; the program kicks off in September.
