Formal Mentoring is a one-on-one interaction between a Mentee and Mentor with specific objectives of increasing skill, editor level, and Waze Community participation.  With a specific Mentee-Mentor pair, agreed upon objective, start, and end, this process needs a bit more coordination.  It also requires commitment from both the Mentee and Mentor to complete the objective.  Mentoring could last a week to months - the Mentee and Mentor decide.
Once you have decided Formal Mentoring is right for you, after you have read the [[Mentoring/Formal/USA/Guidelines|guidelines]], and understand the commitment required of you, you can apply here.


Formal Mentoring is conducted by a Waze-approved group of Mentors.  If you wish to become a Mentor or Mentee, look on the Waze Forum about mentoring (below).
