Academic Advising and Mentoring

Academic Advising and Mentoring service is an integral part of students’ life at Bahrain Polytechnic. Advisors support and encourage students in their academic and personal growth.

Every student is assigned an advisor/mentor at the start of the academic year. They meet regularly with students to monitor their attendance, review their progress, advise on class schedules and assist with decision making in the students’ academic journey
The student can reach out to share any issues, concerns, and ideas to improve and build on their learning experience. Advisors will refer students to the other support services as needed, including the confidential Counselling services available.

Bahrain Polytechnic believes that strong support helps develop students into independent learners, leaders and members of society through establishing relationships where students feel comfortable to seek guidance and support as needed.
