Become a Mentor at Regent's College

Here at Regent's College we have launched Regent's College Mentors as a way for current students to benefit from personal developmental relationships with Alumni and Friends of the College who have chosen to put their experience to work in nurturing a new generation.

How much time do I need to commit?

When you are paired with a mentee, you each sign an agreement outlining outcomes agreed between you.  We recommend at least one face-to-face meeting with your mentee each month, supplemented by email or telephone contact if you find that useful.  From time to time your schedule or the workload of your mentee will mean that you need to miss a meeting.  This is fully understandable and won't impair the relationship.  The official period of mentoring lasts for a semester - though in practice you may wish to remain in contact with your mentee long after graduation.

What Skills or Experience do I need?

You need no practical experience of mentoring as full support will be given when you become a mentor.  You just need a willingness to listen, share the benefit of your experience in work and life and help your mentee through discussion and reflection.

What are the benefits?

Regent's College Mentors have dedicated support within the Alumni Relations Team.  A full range of benefits for mentors includes:

  • Satisfaction from supporting the Regent’s College community through helping current students and nurturing the leaders of tomorrow
  • Professional networking opportunities with other mentors through special events organised by Regent's College Alumni Relations Department for Mentors and Mentees
  • Official recognition by Regent's College in our publications and online
  • Membership of the Regent’s College Mentors’ Forum 

What are the next steps?

For information on how to register please email the Alumni Relations team.

"Taking part in the IBM Business challenge in 2004 -05 was a truly wonderful experience and an enriching learning curve for us all. It combines the pressure of working under time constraints while harnessing the strengths of our multi-cultural team to make an efficient group."
