Since its creation in 2014, the RGM Academy has built an international ecosystem dedicated to professionalising mentoring as a human, strategic and scientifically grounded discipline. Born as part of the development of the Global Mentoring Network, the Academy has grown into a leading institution for the training, research and certification of professional mentors across many regions and languages.
The RGM Academy's mission is to unify, structure and raise the training standard of mentoring, offering academic programmes, technical guides, specialised manuals and assessment systems that guarantee the quality, consistency and traceability of the training process in any country in the world.
Through an integrating vision, the Academy sets international criteria, promotes professional ethics and defines pedagogical standards that serve as the basis for its associated Training Centres and the smaller academies that operate worldwide under its supervision.
The Academy is led by Dr. Nelson de J. Rueda, a continental reference in mentoring, human resource management, applied neuroscience, executive coaching and the development of human potential. His academic career, research work and ability to link theoretical foundations with applied methodologies have established him as one of the leading architects of contemporary mentoring.
His leadership guarantees:
