An opportunity to give back to society.
It has been a fulfilling experience for Leticia as she realized through feedback from her mentees that she was on course in her efforts to guide them. She sees the opportunity as a way of giving back to society what God has deposited in her through her profession.
My name is Leticia Baidoo, an Education Group Mentor. I am trapped in a learning stage which gives me an intense desire to be on the lookout for new information on scheduled topics. The programme has been a great opportunity to become an asset or positive influence on the younger generation and give back to society.
It has been really fulfilling as feedback from mentees indicated that they really benefitted from the learning sessions. It has really been a fruitful use of my time. The social media platforms including WhatsApp have really come to stay and indeed it was helpful in transmitting information to mentees.
I would recommend smaller groups of mentees per mentor to further enhance the effectiveness of the programme. I also recommend organizers to consider mentors building long term ethical and professional relationship with mentees.
The programme should also focus on building well-rounded individuals with respect to physical well-being, educational or personal development, financial, community and political well-being, among others.
The entire CoRe Programme is really an asset, given the excellent organizational set up, coupled with the solid team and brand. It is transforming and impacting society and should be sustained. I am really impressed.
