Register for a mentoring class through your student portal or by visiting the Registrar's Office.
Step 2: Select a Mentor
After registration, the next step is to select your mentor.Potential mentors include pastors, ministry colleagues, or professors with whom you have an existing or desired mentor relationship.
Ensure your chosen mentor meets the following criteria:
5+ years of ministry experience
Have a theological master’s degree
Have relevant experience in your field of study
They may not be a family member
Ideally, mentors and students should be of the same gender
Once you have selected your mentor, follow one of the following steps:
For Returning Mentors: If your mentor has mentored with NOBTS before, they do not need to resubmit an application. Email the mentoring office with your mentor's name to confirm their status.
For New Mentors: If your mentor has not been previously approved, have them submit the mentor application below.
Unsure About Status: If you are uncertain whether your mentor is approved, contact the mentoring office at Mentoring@nobts.edu to verify their status.
Mentor approval must be completed before the add/drop deadline, or you will be withdrawn from the course.
By the end of the first week of the semester, your mentor must view the training videos below. The training includes short videos on mentoring philosophy, responsibilities, and required documents for accreditation.
Once your mentor has completed training, they must complete the Mentor Agreement & Training Verification form below. This should be completed by the end of the first week of the semester.
