Mentoring CourseMentoring can be a valuable tool to help coaches and officials improve their knowledge, skills and confidence and achieve the requirements for accreditation. To assist in the training of mentors in sport, the Australian Sports Commission (ASC) has developed a Mentor Training Program.

The course aims to enhance skills of the mentor to assist coaches and officials within their roles both in the community and high performance environments. It is recommended that participants are familiar with the mentoring structure and the role of the mentor within their sport.

This course contains a number of practical activities to practise mentoring skills. On completion of the workshop, mentors should be able to plan and organise mentoring relationships and assist mentees to develop and improve.

Mentoring is an effective way for coaches and officials to learn and develop under the supervision of a senior coach or official. Mentors can assist with coaching or officiating skills improvement and be a sounding board for problems.
