Peer mentoring programs

Peer mentoring programs involve individuals at a similar level (e.g., students or colleagues) supporting each other’s growth and development. Typically, a more experienced or knowledgeable peer offers guidance, advice, and encouragement to a less experienced peer, helping them navigate challenges, build skills, and gain confidence. These programs foster a sense of community, enhance learning, and promote mutual support within organizations or educational settings. By leveraging shared experiences and understanding, peer mentoring creates a collaborative environment that benefits both mentors and mentees.
