A few days before the boot camp the facilitators will take the mentors through the structure of the boot camp, to make sure they are equipped to provide support.
Here is a suggested structure for the call:
- Introductions
- Thank people for mentoring and explain importance
- What people want to know about the boot camp
- What the breakdown of the cohort is
- What being a mentor is (check people know about the description in this repo)
- Encourage open questions and coaching towards their own solutions
- Encourage them to share their own perspectives, including during talking segments
- What the purpose of the boot camp is (high level)
- Step through the exercises, highlighting any important bits
- Explain what to expect ‘on the day’
- What the expectations are around their involvement
- Joining instructions
- Remote/physical
- Time
- Location
- Arriving before apprentices
- Debrief at the end of each day
