Overview

Mentoring is one of IPAA’s most successful methods of knowledge sharing and career coaching. Mentors and mentees will be invited from across the public sector in South Australia each year.

Our program begins with a group session, which enables participants to introduce themselves and set individual goals. IPAA then works with the mentees to ensure they are matched with a mentor who can help them achieve the goals they have set. Pairs collaborate for 9 months with additional structured group sessions and support services facilitated by IPAA.

Framework

This is a mentee driven program, where mentees are responsible for developing and articulating their goals. Mentors and mentees will be invited from across the public sector in South Australia. Successful mentors and mentees will be selected by IPAA, according to the quality and integrity of expressions of interest received. Mentees will have the opportunity to guide the matching process with their mentor.

IPAA will provide training and support throughout the entire 9-month program and will also act as a facilitator between the pairs. The mentor relationship is formalised under an agreement between the pair for the duration of the program with the opportunity for pairs to continue the relationship on their own at the conclusion.
