Just as previous programmes, the third Mentoring Programme was attended by forty junior women academics and researchers from different disciplines and from all university departments with a view to advancing their academic careers.
Building on the evaluation results of the second programme, the aim was to survey the impact of the programme on the participants and their careers in quantitative terms and also to examine the effect of programme modifications (resulting from the recommendations made after the previous evaluation) designed to avoid structural problems in the mentoring process. The evaluation was done at a representative level, based on an online questionnaire.
Altogether, the Mentoring Programme lived up to its set goals and was very favourably assessed by the mentees. Compared with the second Mentoring Programme, the third one was improved in many respects.
