i'm trying to find workbooks on becoming certified in mentoring.?

Answer 1

Individual mentoring programs train their volunteer mentors using their own materials. This is because mentoring programs vary greatly in terms of what a mentor does, the goals of the program, etc. If you want to become a mentor, you need to apply to be a volunteer through a mentoring program. Contact local schools to see if they have such a program. You can also call the United Way and see if they know of a mentoring program in your area.

The National Mentoring Partnership maintains standards for mentoring programs. Look up this organization in any search engine to access the extensive web site. They also have various publications you can purchase regarding mentoring.
