Mentoring means guidance or support that a competent, experienced and recognized person gives to a younger improvement-minded person. Through mentoring a bond is formed, where the mentor and the protégé exchange information and experiences on some topic. The relationship is founded on mutual openess, trust and commitment to a common goal.
The annually organized mentoring project acts as a link for the exchange of information, thought and experiences between an already graduated, more experienced person already in working-life and a improvement-minded student. The experiences have been positive and appreciated by both the mentors and the protégés.
Especially we hope for more Indecs alumni participation in mentoring. For practical reasons living or working in the Tampere area is beneficial for the purposes of arranging meetings.
