We are often asked to recommend effective software to help manage mentoring programmes and match mentors with mentees. We are happy to signpost the following platforms having spoken with the developers and had a tour of the functionality. Please note, this is a recommendation to explore, rather than to buy – you need to make sure that any software you buy meets the needs of your mentoring programme. But we won’t list any platform here without at least one of Andy or Ruth having at least spoken to the developers.
