Practical experience via workplace mentorship
Mentorship in the OPE dealership has been around for as long as the OPE industry has been around and would be around for as long as there are people who are more experienced than others in the same job. It is essentially the original on-the-job training, where a more experienced employee (the mentor) provides guidance and knowledge to a less-experienced employee (the mentee or protege).
Combining online learning with mentoring makes an extremely powerful development tool, but it is also extremely cost-effective. This is because you’re leveraging the resources you already have (your experienced employees). It is however important to guardrail the process to ensure a high quality outcome.
