Having an effective mentoring programme in place in the construction industry is critical to the development and growth of emerging contractors as well as the industry as a whole. A survey was undertaken among the mentees who attended a specific mentoring programme in the Eastern Cape to establish the need for training, mentoring and monitoring of emerging contractors. Primary data was collected by means of a telephonic survey of the emerging contractors as well as the mentors and service providers regarding the mentoring programme. Secondary data was obtained from the survey of the literature. The main findings were that there is a huge need for training and mentoring of emerging contractors and that monitoring after completion of the programme is a necessity. Furthermore, although it was determined that all facets of training and mentoring are important, in order to ensure the overall development of emerging contractors, the development of financial and management skills on site requires the most attention. Om 'n effektiewe mentorskap-program in plek te hê vir die konstrukie-industrie is krities vir die ontwikkeling en groei van opkomende kontrakteurs, sowel as die industrie as geheel. 'n Studie is onderneem tussen opkomende kontrakteurs wat 'n spesifieke mentorskap-program in die Oos Kaap bygewoon het, om vas te stel of daar 'n vraag na opleiding, mentorskap en monitering van opkomende kontrakteurs bestaan. Primêre data is gevorder deur middel van 'n telefoniese vraelys aan opkomende kontrakteurs oor die mentorprogram so wel as die mentors en diensverskaffers van die program. Sekondêre data was gevorder vanaf literatuur. Die hoof bevindinge is dat daar 'n groot aanvraag vir opleiding en mentorskap van opkomende kontrakteurs is, en dat monitering na voltooiing van die mentorskapprogram 'n noodsaaklikheid is. Verder is daar gevind dat, alhoewel alle fasette van opleiding en mentorskap belangrik is, om te verseker dat algehele ontwikkeling van die opkomende kontrakteur plaasvind, finansiële en bestuursbekwaamheid die meeste aandag benodig.
