Abstract

This paper focuses on the learning journeys of a group of lecturers who chose to undertake Master level study in Mentoring and Coaching at the University of Worcester. It includes extracts from their assignments and their reflections on their own professional development and
learning as a result of the course. In all cases a greater understanding was achieved of mentoring and coaching in terms of clarifying the ambiguity around the definitions, improving their own skills and development as a mentor and coach and increasing awareness of the complex dynamics of the helping relationship. Clear benefits are demonstrated not only as a result of the critical reflection and research that form part of master level study, but also in terms of improved outcomes for students.
