==Overview==
 
Those of us who assist residents as part of a help group have all seen those who have made serious errors in communication.  The idea here is codify not just what helpers need to know technically, but also what they need to know to communicate the information.  It doesn't do much good to give people information if one is being snide and insulting while doing it.  I have actually seen "mentors" yelling at people (in text) that they aren't "going to baby them, or help them find things in the interface."  Personally, I consider that the "hit them over the head with a rock until they learn" method of teaching.
 
==Audience==
 
People and organizations who want to help others.
 
==Pre-requisites==
 
No prerequisites at this time.
 
==Criteria==
 
Describe the skills necessary to mentor competently and effectively.
 
==New Resident Skillset==
These are my initial suggestions of what a new resident needs to know.  That means this is what a helper should be qualified to teach.  Please comment.
