Training and mentoring programs.

Long-term training programs (3-12 months) need regular opportunities for peer networking between participants. SpeedNetworking does it at scale - 5-minute rotations every two weeks, so everyone gets to know others in the group.

Format for programs

• Onboarding session - on day one, participants meet each other in a speed format. 20 people = 8 rounds of 5 min = everyone knows everyone.
• Mid-program checkpoints - a short networking session every 2 weeks; everyone shares a status update and picks up signals from others.
• Mentor-mentee matching - before the next phase, mentors and mentees swipe on each other and the system pairs them based on compatibility.

Program benefits

• Higher retention - participants who bond with their cohort drop out less often.
• A stronger alumni network - after the program, people know each other "in depth", not just from LinkedIn.
• Less work for the facilitator - auto-pilot runs the show, the facilitator only monitors.
