Mentoring is a method of support, exchange and learning based on a relationship between an inexperienced doctor (the mentee or assistant) and an experienced doctor (the mentor).

Teaching methods

These are regular meetings. The mentor is an inspirational role model who does not position himself as an expert who holds the solution, but rather as the person who enables the mentee to initiate a process of reflection. Mentors pass on their experience. There is no hierarchical relationship. Themes and files are provided as support.

Assessment method

The intimacy and non-hierarchical nature of the “Mentor-Mentee” relationship does not allow for a traditional evaluation of the mentee by the mentor.


The evaluation will be based on:

  • On one hand, the mentee’s engagement (attendance, consistency, behavior, communication), assessed through the mentor’s feedback submitted after each meeting;
  • On the other hand, the mentee’s feedback provided after each meeting (progress, topics discussed, etc.).


Mentoring requires the mentee to invest seriously in the meetings, both relationally and organizationally. Feedback must be completed and sent immediately after each meeting. The faculty reserves the right to summon the student for an external evaluation of the mentoring process.
