often fulfill. When a specific part of these responsibilities is

details on that part.
Mentor Coordinator Role Options:
1. Administrator:
- Plan, arrange, schedule group, small group,
and individual participant meetings, and meetings with staff who
are external to program
- Administer budgets, stipends & other costs

3. Trainer:
4. Problem Solver
- Resolve mentor/protege mismatches
- Trouble shoot with persons not meeting program

responsibilities of the coordinator.)
