    Teaching methods and instruction

    The mentoring programme aims at the professional growth and the strengthening of professional relationships of the student (mentee).

    The value of mentoring lies in particular in the fact that the mentee is assigned a personal mentor (a Haaga-Helia alum) who guides and supports the mentee in challenges. Mentoring is about learning together, sharing experiences and knowledge through interaction.

    The mentee self defines the objectives for the process. The objectives may be related to career planning, finding a concrete internship or job, challenges in the working life or in the final phase of studies, self-development or deepening expertise.

    The mentoring programme consists of one-to-one mentoring meetings between mentor and mentee, joint group meetings and self-study materials in Moodle. In the kick off meeting, the objectives and ground rules of mentoring are discussed, a mentoring agreement is drawn up and interpersonal skills are developed.

    NOTE! The course is open to all degree students, regardless of campus, programme or orientation. Master students can enrol, but the credits are not included in the degree.
