Add local mentorship form/portal #19

Description

@ethanfranks

Skylar Nichols in the devICT Slack recently asked about local mentorship opportunities. This sparked some conversation about devICT facilitating local mentorship.

@sethetter mentioned:

My rough thoughts on a minimal mentorship-esque program are

  • Form allowing people to list themselves as available as a mentor/coacher/helper of some sort

    • Details include topics they are comfortable mentoring on, how they are willing to engage (slack DMs, in person, weekly zooms, etc), and what sort of frequency / time commitment they’re open to

  • Website and slack bot makes list of possible mentors available to other devICT members, who can reach out to those individuals on their own

  • Published guidelines and expectations for how the mentor/mentee interactions should go to make sure everyone involved is on the same page

  • Someone checks in with mentors and mentees on some regular basis to see how it’s going and adjust things as necessary

As I have looked for mentorship opportunities in the past I came across a platform called Coding Coach that does a similar thing; however, after reaching out to several mentors through the platform I never heard back from any of them. Offering something along these lines locally would make it easier to keep an up to date list of mentors. We could potentially use the Coding Coach platform as a reference for ideas and functionality.

                My rough thoughts on a minimal mentorship-esque program are

                • Form allowing people to list themselves as available as a mentor/coacher/helper of some sort

                  • Details include topics they are comfortable mentoring on, how they are willing to engage (slack DMs, in person, weekly zooms, etc), and what sort of frequency / time commitment they’re open to

                • Website and slack bot makes list of possible mentors available to other devICT members, who can reach out to those individuals on their own

                • Published guidelines and expectations for how the mentor/mentee interactions should go to make sure everyone involved is on the same page

                • Someone checks in with mentors and mentees on some regular basis to see how it’s going and adjust things as necessary

                As I have looked for mentorship opportunities in the past I came across a platform called Coding Coach that does a similar thing; however, after reaching out to several mentors through the platform I never heard back from any of them. Offering something along these lines locally would make it easier to keep an up to date list of mentors. We could potentially use the Coding Coach platform as a reference for ideas and functionality.
