The science behind MentorPRO
MentorPRO is the natural extension of decades of our research on youth mentoring. Learn more about the science behind this groundbreaking new approach.
Jean Rhodes, Ph.D.
Co-founder, MentorPRO
Director, Center for Evidence-Based Mentoring
Our research show that mentoring is most effective when…
Training and supervision is associated with dramatically stronger effects (Burton…Rhodes, 2021). […]
Through MentorPRO Academy’s state-of-the-art learning management system we offer mentor and mentee trainings based on best practices. We are continuously creating, evaluating, and improving our offerings.
Targeted mentoring is two to three times more effective than nonspecific mentoring (Christensen…Rhodes, 2020). […]
MentorPRO’s Check-In and Goals features allow for interactive mood-tracking and goal-setting so mentors can track and support their mentees in real time.
Human support is essential for user engagement in technology-delivered interventions (Werntz…Rhodes, 2023). […]
MentorPRO has application programming interface (API) integration with evidence-based training and mental health apps (MHapps) such as Healthy Minds which enables mentors to track and encourage engagement. Our Supportive Accountability provides mentors with the training they need.
How MentorPRO works
What our partners are saying
We appreciate the outstanding seminal mentoring work of Dr. Jean Rhodes for over three decades and still going strong. We are truly impressed by MentorPRO as a holistic mentoring platform and the rigour invested in its development and ongoing work. It will be vital in supporting our mentoring mission.
MentorPRO has been a Godsend as far as I’m concerned. I feel like the app has completely changed my job as an advocate because it’s just so much easier to communicate and get updates from our staff members. I find it super user friendly. I love the resources that are on there. I love the classes that they can take. I love it!
“MentorPRO has really increased the engagement of mentors with mentees and also given our team, including our professional staff, a way of more effectively delivering our mentoring program overall. The support has been invaluable. It’s been incredibly helpful to have a team of professionals who can guide us through the platform and also to give us ideas and be thought partners. Genuinely it’s been a huge asset to the program and has been really well received by mentors, mentees, and our professional staff!”
The Career Opportunities Initiative is a masterpiece. We could not have done this career development mentoring practice without MentorPRO.
Engagement is through the roof compared to what we looked like last year. We are forever grateful because it has really helped change our connection and how we talk about mentorship and where we are. We now have this massive group of students that we’re able to connect with and MentorPRO has become the linchpin of those connections.
“We are so glad that we selected MentorPRO for our new workforce development program. MentorPRO team has gone above and beyond in helping us develop our Career Opportunities Initiative. This includes helping to create career training courses and selecting surveys, to making timely technical adjustments as needed. We are thrilled with this partnership.”
“MentorPRO isn’t just another mentoring software tool. It’s a blueprint for how to do everything right–from best practices in mentoring, networking, matching, training, and supervising, to scientific data collecting and reporting. Every feature is backed by decades of research and evaluation, making it the most scientifically rigorous and effective platform available.”
“I think probably this is the most helpful program our school has ever come out with.”
“MentorPRO has revolutionized the peer-to-peer mentorship space, allowing for sustained connections through an easy-to-use platform and filling a hole that has been ever-growing in the world of higher education. It’s a great resource for our students!”
