Over the course of many years programs have expressed interest in beginning a mentoring program in their JATC, but many have not done so due to the initial inertia required to get a program started. For this reason, as a service to the local JATCs, the electrical training ALLIANCE has created a Mentoring Playbook.
This Playbook is intended to assist you in creating and implementing a mentoring program in your JATC without the need to re-create the wheel. The resources in each “lesson” are intended to serve as a starting point for things such as a program announcement, mentor applications, and project timelines that may be modified to fit your local needs.
The idea of the Playbook came from an NTI “C” Group session in 2018. Since then the Playbook has been created and a number of pilot programs have already begun at JATCs. To hear more about the Playbook and how these pilot programs have fared, plan to attend another “C” Group session this NTI (time and location still TBD).
