We are overtly expanding our free Continuing Professional Development (CPD) to target both coaches and mentors. We have many coaches graduating from our PGC EMCC Senior Practitioner and EMCC Foundation level programmes.

In addition, we also have large numbers of mentors within organisational programmes, which we support.

That is where coaching and mentoring skills can make a real difference.

Delivering Women’s Mentoring Programmes — In Peru and the UK
Paul Stokes suggests that women’s mentoring programmes are influenced by their specific context, impacting their design and implementation.
