Effective journeyperson apprentice mentoring on-the-job [electronic resource] : tips, strategies, and resources / [working group members, Aneel Rangi ... et al.].
The six workplace practices described in this report that support journeyperson mentoring and training were drawn from more than 80 interviews with employers, journeypersons, apprentices and trainers, with additional input from the members of the Working Group. The practices include selecting the appropriate person to be the mentor, offering mentoring training, creating a training plan, giving the journeyperson and apprentice opportunities to evaluate how things are going, providing the journeypersons with approaches around effective mentoring and communication and, finally, providing ongoing supports such as refresher courses.
