CIHT Mentor Platform

At CIHT, we believe in the power of mentoring to develop skills, share knowledge, and achieve professional goals. We have successfully launched an exciting new mentor platform designed to connect experienced professionals with those looking to advance their careers. 

The CIHT mentoring platform is a great member benefit that allows CIHT Members to access mentoring options from our different mentoring programmes:

  • Professional Qualifications for those working towards EngTech, IEng, CEng or CTPP

ALL paying CIHT members can now register to both offer and receive mentoring support focused on their career development and professional registration.

What is the CIHT mentoring platform?

The mentoring platform has been designed to make finding, connecting and communicating with a mentor as easy as possible. It is packed with videos, tools, guides, and checklists to support you through your mentoring journey. Alongside the resources that help you define and set your mentoring goals, the platform also allows mentees and mentors to match and connect, in terms of the skills and experience they are offering and looking for. The platform also has an inbuilt meeting tool that allows you to arrange meetings, set agendas, record meeting notes, and agree action points and video chat from within the platform.

Member Testimonial

Working with a mentor helps mentees set goals, stay accountable, and maintain motivation throughout their professional journey. 

Ellen Earle, Principal Transport Planner at JNP Group, said:

I have had a great experience with the mentoring platform. Matching with my mentor has accelerated my progress towards professional qualifications but also my general development, and I may not have connected with such an experienced mentor if it wasn’t for the CIHT mentor platform.

 

Choose your path. Register as a mentee or a mentor, or register as both. Once registered you will be supported to offer and receive support


 

Let’s shape the future of highways and transportation together, one mentorship at a time.
