NASBTT’s Mentor Development Modules offer a flexible suite of training resources that can be embedded within existing elements of your mentor training. Modules will be available as either online self-directed study or as taught modules delivered by licenced providers. The full suite of 60 modules will be available from September 2024 and 30 modules will be available for early roll out by September 2023.
The 2024 mentoring requirements state that general mentors are required to access a minimum of 20 hours of initial training time in their first year of mentoring, followed by a minimum of six hours of annual refresher training in subsequent years; lead mentors are required to undertake a minimum of 30 hours of initial training time in the first year, followed by 12 hours of annual refresher training in subsequent years.
The Mentor Development Modules have been designed to support ITT providers in meeting the training time requirements and the demands of creating a ‘fully resourced mentor curriculum that aligns with the trainee curriculum equip[ping] mentors with an understanding of the curriculum content trainees will cover and an approach to mentoring based on the best available evidence’.
This tailored offering enables providers to have complete control of their mentor training and meet the individual training and development requirements of their mentors.
