Mentor

1. Overview

Mentoring in Bsharp Converse allows users to create, assign, and track mentoring tasks to help individuals or teams learn new skills or improve existing ones. Mentors can assign tasks, monitor progress, add feedback, and manage mentoring sessions using categories, skills, sub-skills, due dates, and AI Copilot support.

2. When to Use

  • When you want to guide team members in learning a new skill or improving an existing skill.

  • When mentors need to assign structured tasks with timelines and tracking.

  • When managers or trainers want visibility into mentoring progress and outcomes.

  • When mentoring sessions need to be reused using templates.

3. Concepts

  • Mentor – The user who creates and assigns mentoring tasks.

  • Assignee – The user who receives and completes the mentoring task.

  • Observer – A user added to monitor the mentoring task without performing it.

  • Tasks – Action items created as part of a mentoring session.

  • Sub Tasks – Smaller steps added under a task.

  • Categories – High-level classification of the mentoring topic.

  • Skills and Sub-Skills – Skill mapping used to track learning focus.

  • Session Status – The current state of a mentoring task (Unread, In Progress, Completed, Dropped, Overdue).

  • Templates – Saved mentoring sessions that can be reused.
