How to pair mentors with mentees and manage ongoing relationships
Creating & Managing Matches
Matching is at the heart of any mentorship program. The Matches page lets you create, monitor, and manage mentor-mentee pairings.
Creating a Match
- Click Create Match on the matches page.
- Select a mentor from the dropdown.
- Select a mentee from the dropdown.
- Optionally add notes about why this pairing was made.
- Click Create to finalize the match.
Both the mentor and mentee will be notified by email when a match is created.
Tip
Consider matching based on shared skills, career interests, or department. Members' profile information can help inform good pairings.
Monitoring Matches
The matches list shows each pairing with key indicators:
- Status — Active, Paused, or Completed
- Meetings — Number of meetings held
- Last activity — When the pair last interacted
- Health — An engagement indicator based on meeting frequency and messaging
Managing a Match
Click on any match to view details. From there you can:
- Pause — Temporarily suspend the relationship
- Complete — Mark the mentoring relationship as finished
- Add notes — Record observations about the pairing
Warning
Completing a match is a one-way action. Create a new match if the pair needs to restart.
