Training, Lectures and Mentoring Programmes

Mentor Scheme Seminar
Each Lodge is expected to appoint a Lodge Mentor, an experienced member who will appoint Personal Mentors to look after the development of new recruits and other members who may need support. Once or twice a year a seminar is held to support new and existing Lodge Mentors.

Preparing for the Masters’ Chair Seminar
The prospect of becoming Master of the Lodge can generate a range of questions and concerns. The workshops for aspiring members have proven to be most helpful in clarifying the role, alleviating anxiety and boosting confidence and enthusiasm. Attendance is open to any Lodge Officer who aims to progress to the Chair. For further information or to book a place, please contact the Provincial Education Officer, Brian Rushton. The next available Seminar is listed in the Diary Dates

Orations
All Lodges are encouraged to include an Oration in their annual programme. This is an opportunity to consider an aspect of our ritual in more detail and to reflect on its meaning to us as individual masons. Orations are especially helpful in completing the annual programme on those occasions when there is no Candidate's ceremony. Please follow this link to the Provincial Orator's page.

Seminars on other topics
Suggestions for topics are always welcomed and should be forwarded to the Provincial Education Officer, Brian Rushton
