OSC&M and BrightWave launch online coach-mentoring toolkit

The Oxford School of Coaching and Mentoring (OSC&M) and
e-learning company BrightWave have launched the Oxford Coach-Mentor's Online Toolkit. The Toolkit is designed to help line managers, human resource specialists and coach-mentoring professionals to improve the effectiveness of their coach-mentoring.

"Coach-mentoring is one of the fastest-growing and most effective methods to improve learning within large organisations," said Eric Parsloe, CEO of The Oxford Total Learning Group. "We have a distinctive approach which combines academic rigour with commercial relevance and pragmatism. Since our start seven years ago we have developed over 400 professionals through our qualification programmes in coach-mentoring that are recognised and accredited by Oxford Brookes University. With the release of this Toolkit we are now making that same expertise available to a larger audience."

The Toolkit is available in three generic versions: The Manager as Coach and Mentor, The Specialist Coach and Mentor, and The Professional Coach and Mentor.

"By blending e-learning with traditional training tools such as video, written materials, interactive exercises and face to face sessions, companies can save costs and offer a more engaging learning experience," said Charles Gould, Managing Director of BrightWave. "The Toolkit can be tailored around specific needs or used as an off-the-shelf library of resources, and it can easily be integrated with normal work routines to save time out of the office."
