How It Works

The TASBO Mentoring Program is tailored to the needs of its participants. Matching is done based on protégé needs and mentor experience, taking into consideration district similarities and area of specialization (job duties).

The mentors and protégés will communicate through telephone mentoring. 30 minute calls are recommended on a weekly basis. In addition to these regular sessions, the mentor will spend one full day with the protégé at his/her district. Additional onsite visits may be arranged if mutually agreed upon.
