Circles beside 1:1 mentoring

Circles and 1:1 pairs together

One program can run circles and 1:1 pairs, each with its own sessions.

  • Circles one mentor, a small group
  • 1:1 pairs one mentor, one mentee
  • Office hours book any mentor

Group messaging

Messages to the whole group

A member can write on the group’s behalf, and everyone in it sees the thread.

  • Members write as the group or privately, as themselves
  • Mentors write to the whole group one message, one thread
  • Admins write as the program a shared inbox
  • The author is always shown on every message

Events for groups

One sign-up for the whole group

With group registration on, the invitation goes to every member of the group.
