Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

  • Mentoring is a free exchange where an experienced professional provides guidance and insights to help the mentee grow.
  • Coaching is a paid service where a coach provides structured support, training, and accountability based on the agreed terms between both parties.

ECA does not set prices or handle payments for coaching. The mentor (coach) and mentee (coachee) must agree on the price, deliverables, and conditions independently.

Either the mentor or mentee can take the initiative! However, we encourage mentees to reach out first and propose a time.

You can agree on a communication method that works best – whether it’s our internal ECA Community platform, Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, phone calls, or even in-person if possible.

There is no strict rule, but we recommend at least one session per month for continuity and progress. Feel free to adjust based on availability.

  • Mentoring: There’s no fixed schedule, but we recommend at least one session per month to ensure continuity.
  • Coaching: Frequency depends on the agreement between the coach and coachee based on their specific needs.

The first session should focus on:
✅ Getting to know each other
✅ Setting expectations and goals
✅ Defining how you will work together (frequency, format, duration)
✅ For coaching: Defining the scope, pricing, and deliverables
