Mentoring Services
DUNN Training
is pleased to announce a new Mentoring Service to agencies and corporations.
Mentoring involves knowledge transfer to a group working on a project where
training parts are highly customized to target the skills required to meet the
end goal of said project. Before starting the mentoring service, pre-event
meetings with the client will take place in order to gather requirements,
assess project member skills, and the assigning of research and lab work prior
to the event for project team members.
The Overview
The time frame of each mentoring session will be short
engagements ranging from one to three days. The brevity allows for us to
focus on small goals such as starting a project, fixing any major bugs through
the education of debugging techniques, or a review session of a project. A
project might have multiple mentoring sessions throughout its lifecycle that
encapsulate the issues previously mentioned by addressing different
technologies or taking the next step as milestones are reached.
The Daily Breakdown
The mentoring day is typically divided into a customized training session in the
morning and live mentoring work on the client’s project with the team in the
afternoon. This allows for the team to learn about a new technology and immediately
integrate said technology into their real-world work. A professional mentor may
be hired for any or all of the phases of software development including the initial
planning, architecture, design, development, implementation, debugging and testing,
and deployment and installation. Mentors will answer team member questions via email
throughout the project’s lifecycle.
Virtual Mentoring
If face-to-face mentoring does not accommodate one’s business, we do offer virtual
mentoring. This is done through video conferencing and email. This is beneficial
to those who own small businesses or live in rural or remote communities. Virtual
mentoring will typically be less expensive than face-to-face mentoring along with
more options for mentors, and flexibility on time and days.
