Implement a structured feedback mechanism for both the learner and the mentor to share their experiences and suggest improvements for future shadowing opportunities.

Shadowing bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, allowing learners to see how concepts are applied in real-world scenarios.

Beyond specific job tasks, shadowing helps learners understand workplace culture, team dynamics, and the soft skills required for success in a professional setting.

Shadowing can be adapted to various contexts and durations, from a few hours observing a specific task to long-term shadowing that covers a broad range of activities.

Select mentors who are not only skilled and knowledgeable but also have the capacity and interest in sharing their expertise with others.

Ensure that the learner has a basic foundation of knowledge to maximize the learning potential from the shadowing experience.

Set aside time for the mentor and learner to discuss observations, answer questions, and reflect on the learning experience.

Emphasize the importance of confidentiality, professionalism, and respect for the workplace and its clients during the shadowing process.
