General details about the Mentoring program, resources, and Informal Mentoring alternatives, can be found on the Mentoring page.
Details
- A controlled one-on-one interaction geared to educate a mentee on particular Waze editing skills.
- Must come to a formal agreement to start the mentorship, after careful selection of partners.
- Only Waze can approve formal mentors.
- Provided education is more predictable and controlled with high certainty for a positive outcome.
- Goal oriented: intended to improve a particular mentee skill, not a particular feature on the map.
- Repeated interaction, in a defined range of time on a specific range of topics, to improve a particular skill.
- Helps ensure quality map edits over time as editors advance in rank.
- Expectation is to upgrade the mentee skills, allowing the mentee to rise in rank or at least close the gap toward a rise in rank. At mentor discretion, mentee may receive a (temporary) rank change to facilitate the mentorship.
