Coast Guard Mentoring Program

Become a Coast Guard mentor, mentee, or both.

Mentoring is a traditional method for orienting and training those new to the Coast Guard, as well as a valuable means for supporting the development - even accelerating the professional growth - of experienced employees, middle managers, and executives. Individuals who share knowledge, experiences, and skills to benefit someone else provide valuable leadership. Mentoring is one of the Coast Guard's 28 Leadership Competencies, and is found within the "leading others" category of the Leadership Development Framework. 

All workforce members (including active duty, reservists, civilian employees, and auxiliarists), regardless of responsibility level, can benefit from mentoring anytime during a career. Just as we need to be mentored in order to continually learn, we also learn through teaching others. Ultimately, the Coast Guard improves as an organization through the performance improvements of our people.
