I do not see this training as something for someone new to the workforce being trained to be a mentor when they may not have anything to provide. The idea is that the mentor is more experienced than the mentee and therefore has the knowledge and or skill to impart. The problem as I see it comes from those that while they have the information and knowledge needed to be a mentor do not have the soft people skills needed to impart that knowledge in a manner that is beneficial to the mentee.

I have not thought about mentoring as a clinical concept. My view is that it is more of an organic ability. I thought through some Mentor requirements, at least as it applies to my view. A Mentor:
1) Shows a passion for the work he is doing. this allows him to,
2) Establish the awareness among potential Mentees that the Mentor is available for imparting knowledge and learning. The Mentor then,
3) Imparts knowledge from his experience. Allowing the Mentee to skip some of the trials of learning through trial and error.

So this view of Mentors implies that trying to train a brand new person to be a Mentor while being new to the workforce will not be successfull. That is, what kind of experiental knowledge does he have to impart?
