induction developments

Hi Kirk

sorry I have let the updates drift again, no doubt we will have plenty of time to have a good catch up when we get to NWMS. I just wanted to let you know where we are at:

We have completed the four induction sessions for new mentors; I will be running a few one to one inductions next week for mentors that have just been appointed or were unable to attend the sessions for whatever reason. I am starting an evaluation of the process of the inductions at the moment and will be continuing it before coming over. Then perhaps we will be able to discuss how we can develop this training/induction/application process for future years when we are over.

Just briefly to give you an idea of the things we are looking at. The first thing that is becoming apparent is that staff partners need to be much more involved with the scheme than they seem to have allowed for or anticipated. The second thing is that the induction sessions might be much more effective if seen as a chance to plan projects with supervision from the StAMP team, it might be an idea for us to try and create an exciting collaborative productive environment, a project laboratory when people can think about where they can best use added support and how best to deliver that support.

Looking forward to working with you again

Luke
