== Overview ==
 
Mentoring is the process where a more experienced person (the ''mentor'') imparts knowledge and skill to one who is less experienced (the protege, or in the terms of Waze Formal Mentoring programs, the ''mentee'').
 
There are two main forms of mentoring in Waze; Formal Mentoring, and Informal Mentoring. Each form has its' own benefits and disadvantages which will be discussed below.
 
 
== Formal mentoring ==
 
Formal Mentoring is a structured program, where a specific mentor and mentee are brought together, with a responsibility to accomplish a specific goal. The goal will be to better some aspect of their Waze interaction, be it building a particular skill over time, learning to participate in a certain aspect of the Waze community, learning how a portion of the Waze technology works, or mastering the skills required to increase the mentees' editing rank.
 
A Formal Mentoring arrangement will define the methods of communication, the frequency, and their intensity, and will include a definable objective, and normally a target date for completion.
 
Formal mentoring is still in a trial phase, and is currently only available in certain countries, {{details|Mentoring/Formal|Formal Mentoring}}
 
== Informal mentoring ==
 
Most of the mentoring on Waze takes place informally, without structure. This happens any time two editors with different experience levels in some aspect of editing get together to help the mentee better understand that aspect, and how to implement that knowledge. Informal Mentoring usually either has no goal beyond the immediate issue at hand, or it may be a repeated interaction without an overarching defined goal guiding all of those interactions. Neither party has any formal responsibility to the other.
 
More details and ideas about Informal Mentoring are available at [[Mentoring/Informal]].
