Mentoring Scheme

Supporting the next generation of women in renewable energy

Are you interested in the ground breaking Women in Renewables mentoring programme?

As part of RenewableNI’s commitment to increasing the number of women in the renewable sector, and advancing those already in the industry, we have created a new mentoring programme.

The scheme allows women in renewable energy to study at Belfast Met for a fully funded OCN Level 2 mentoring qualification while mentoring other women in the sector.  The mentoring relationship with then continue after the course completes helping more women enter the renewable sector or advance their careers.

The pilot programme completed in June, with 14 women achieving the new Women in Renewables Mentoring qualification.

Following the review of the pilot the fulled funded Level 2 Women in Renewables qualification will have a second intake.  If you are interested in the qualification, please tick the ‘Mentor’ option.

“Funded by Skill Up, this initiative has provided participants with the tools and confidence to support and mentor others in their communities and workplaces.  The dedication and enthusiasm shown by the women who completed this course has been truly inspiring, and their achievement marks a significant step forward in both personal growth and professional development.”
