Coordinator follow-up

Ask mentors and mentees which role they have first, then branch to role-specific questions while keeping a shared set of match-quality questions for comparison.

Feedback that coordinators can use

See the relationship and the program separately.

Separate match quality from program operations to see whether feedback points to the pairing, logistics, goals, onboarding, or coordinator support.

Two perspectives, one survey

Branch by role, while keeping shared scale questions identical for comparison.

Consistent measures across cohorts

Use labeled scales for match quality, goal progress, meeting consistency, and support.

A clear follow-up path

Route contact requests to the coordinator and keep general comments in the results.

Choose the right review point

One program needs more than one kind of check-in.

An early pulse catches setup problems, a midpoint survey supports active pairs, and a final survey evaluates program design.

Early match pulse

Confirm introductions happened, goals are understood, and both people know how to schedule or request help.

Midpoint check-in

Measure communication, meeting cadence, goal movement, and support needs.

Final experience review

Assess progress, relationship quality, operations, future participation, and one priority change.

Coordinator debrief

Group themes by role and cohort; separate follow-up from next-cycle ideas.

Survey workflow

Build a survey people can finish and coordinators can act on.

Define the decision, generate a concise flow, test both role paths, and share it at a predictable point.

Field guide

What to include in a mentoring program survey.

Use six sections to understand the relationship, progress, support needs, and program improvements.

Role and context

Segment without over-identifying people.

Start with role, cohort, and format. Ask for a name only when follow-up or your process requires it.

  • Mentor or mentee role.
  • Cohort, location, or program track.
  • Optional follow-up contact details.

Participation pattern

Establish what actually happened.

Capture whether the pair connected and how often. Meeting count, cadence, duration, and format add context to ratings.

  • Whether an introduction and first meeting occurred.
  • Meeting frequency and typical duration.
  • In-person, video, phone, or mixed format.

Relationship quality

Measure trust, communication, and fit.

Use the same labeled scale for both roles. Measure communication, reliability, expectations, and goal relevance.

  • Comfort asking questions or raising concerns.
  • Clarity of roles and expectations.
  • Perceived relevance of the match.

Goals and progress

Connect feedback to intended outcomes.

Ask participants to revisit goals, rate progress, and describe a useful change. Treat answers as their perceptions.

  • Clarity of original mentoring goals.
  • Self-reported progress toward those goals.
  • Most useful skill, insight, or next step.

Program operations

Evaluate the support around the match.

Rate onboarding, resources, scheduling, communications, and coordinator responsiveness separately from the relationship.

  • Orientation and matching experience.
  • Usefulness of guides, prompts, or events.
  • Ease of getting coordinator support.

Improvement and follow-up

Give every comment a destination.

Close with one improvement, future participation, and contact permission. Keep help requests separate from general comments.

  • One recommended change for the next cycle.
  • Interest in participating again.
  • Follow-up request and preferred contact method.

FAQ

Mentoring program survey questions

Practical answers for coordinators planning mentor and mentee feedback.

What is a mentoring program survey?

A mentoring program survey gathers feedback about the match, meetings, goals, resources, support, and overall experience. Use it during a program for support needs or after a cohort for design changes.

What questions should I ask mentors and mentees?

Ask both roles about meetings, expectations, communication, match quality, goal progress, support, and improvements. Mentors can rate orientation and resources; mentees can rate the relevance of guidance.

Should mentors and mentees receive the same survey?

Yes. Identify role first and show relevant follow-ups. Keep identically worded scale questions for comparison, then branch where mentor and mentee experiences differ.

When should I send a mentoring program survey?

Use an early pulse after matching, a midpoint check-in while support can help, and a final review. Give each survey a distinct decision or action.

How can I encourage candid mentoring feedback?

Explain who reviews responses, how comments are used, and whether identity is required. Limit identifying fields, make sensitive comments optional, and offer coordinator follow-up.

How do I compare mentor and mentee responses?

Use the same scale and wording for shared topics. Export role and cohort fields, compare patterns, and read comments to understand score differences.

Is this mentoring program survey generator free?

Yes. Makeform provides unlimited free forms and responses, so you can generate, edit, publish, and collect mentoring feedback without a response cap. The paid tier removes the Makeform badge.

How should I handle requests for coordinator follow-up?

Ask contact permission, preferred method, and an optional topic. Route these responses to the coordinator and keep them separate from general program feedback.

Turn two perspectives into a better next cycle.

Generate a mentoring program survey mentors and mentees can answer clearly.
