My first steps as a mentor

Mentoring is one of the fundamental elements of the VIE Academy program.
Partner with us to enable students to be equipped to serve God in all spheres of society and to write His Story.
Sign up as a mentor to support a student throughout their year at VIE Academy.

Persons concerned

Any person from the VIE church who accompanies a student during his year within VIE Academy, in order to allow him to develop and grow in faith.

Goals

As part of VIE Academy, being a mentor will allow you to:
• Accompany a student on an individual and regular basis
• Use mentoring tools
• Live a mentoring experience within the VIE Academy
• Benefit from personalized support throughout the duration of the mentoring relationship.

 Mentoring training

You are asked to follow the training in 5 modules (program below) in order to best support your mentee.
The training contains:
Online educational material, to be studied alone, classified by module, including videos (5 to 12 minutes), PDF files and exercises to be done alone or in pairs.
Zoom sessions to ask your questions about the course to the trainer and deepen the integration of the teaching material.
Face-to-face group workshops to train in a small group and receive feedback
Zoom supervision sessions to receive personalized help, discuss with the trainer and the other participants.

Mentoring

Being a mentor means investing in the success of a mentee by developing a relationship with him or her.
In a practical way, this implies regular meetings, namely, every 15 days during the first 2 months (mid-September to mid-November) and then you will define the rhythm at which you will meet. These are formal meetings of 60 minutes. In addition to this, it is important that you can spend time together informally in order to live and serve God together.
