"I’ve been involved with PEDS since the scheme began and I know how important it is in helping our people through their technical and engineering development. It’s a great way to achieve professional membership and the status and standing that comes with it.

The relationship between mentor and mentee is a critical element of the scheme. Personal and confidential, it’s very different from the relationship an individual would have with a line manager. Yet, all three roles have an important part to play.

It’s good to know that we have more than 70 mentors – all willing and able to support others in their professional growth. As a mentor myself, I understand how satisfying and enlightening the partnership can be for both people."
