How to use the Kirkpatrick Model to Measure Modern Mentoring
One of the most crucial factors to success with mentoring programs is measuring outcomes. After all, how do you know if your goals were accomplished if you don’t take a hard look at the results of your program?
But how do you know what to measure? How do you know what questions to ask in order to ensure success? We recommend using the Kirkpatrick Evaluation Model.
Career Readiness
NACE DEFINES CAREER READINESS, IDENTIFIES KEY COMPETENCIES
The career readiness of college graduates is an important issue in higher education, in the labor market, and in the public arena. Yet, up until now, “career readiness” has been undefined, making it difficult for leaders in higher education, work force development, and public policy to work together effectively to ensure the career readiness of today’s graduates.
Being a Successful Mentee
The importance of mentors to college students
Success can stem from a number of things, including the a good attitude and work ethic, being at the right place at the right time and the often-forgotten asset of having a mentor to help us learn.
The Blown Opportunity
A few months after Gallup released findings from the largest representative study of U.S. college graduates, there is much to ponder. The Gallup-Purdue Index surveyed more than 30,000 graduates to find out whether they are engaged in their work and thriving in their overall well-being. In simple terms, did they end up with great jobs and great lives?

How to be a Successful Mentee
Mentoring is a collaborative learning relationship between individuals who share mutual responsibility and accountability for helping the mentee work toward the fulfillment of clear and mutually defined learning goals. Mentoring is used to assist individuals at specific stages of development or transition and lasts for a sustain ed but defined period of time. The mentoring relationship provides a developmental opportunity for both parties and can thus be of mutual benefit.
