There are benefits to both the mentor and mentee in the BCI standard mentoring program. For the mentee, it provides an opportunity to learn from an experienced professional and receive personalised guidance and support as they work towards their career aspirations. For the mentor, sharing their knowledge and insights with a mentee can be an enriching experience and help them develop their skills and advance their career. Standard mentoring can also foster a culture of continuous learning within an organization and help to bridge generational gaps.

Standard mentoring is a structured process designed to help mentees develop their skills and achieve their career aspirations with the guidance and support of an experienced mentor. The BCI's standard mentoring program involves one-on-one meetings between the mentor and mentee to discuss the mentee's goals and progress and establish a plan for their mentoring relationship. The mentor serves as a guide, advisor, and role model for the mentee, helping them set and achieve professional goals, navigate challenges, and gain new competencies.
