Event Description
Join us for a high‑impact pre‑launch webinar introducing the IIBA UK Mentoring Programme 2026. This session is designed to give you a clear understanding of how mentoring can accelerate your professional growth—whether you’re looking to strengthen your BA capabilities, gain clarity in your career direction, or contribute to the community as a mentor.
We’ll explore why mentoring remains one of the most powerful development tools in the BA profession, drawing on insights from previous programme cycles and reflections from past mentors and mentees. You’ll hear what we’ve learned, what’s changing this year, and how the programme continues to evolve to meet the needs of our growing community.
The session will also walk you through the practical details: key dates, how to register, and what to expect from the matching and onboarding process. If you’re considering getting involved, either as a mentor, mentee, or both, this webinar will help you make an informed decision and prepare for a successful experience.
