dc.description.abstractBackground In the context of health care is necessary a constant evolution in all the scope of professional competences. However for this continuous development is necessary that professionals develop a series of features, like the capacity of teaching and learning in multidisciplinary contexts (Chaves et al, 2014). Peer mentoring has been wildly used in the health professional education to improve student engagement and the quality of the learning experience (Colvin, 2015). 2. Methodology 2nd and 3rd year students of the Physiotherapy Bachelor Course participated in this study. During one semester 2nd year students where organized in small groups with a student mentor from 3rd year. Peer-Mentoring process was developed using an approach with three different objectives: Development of Theoretical Knowledge, Development of Clinical Reasoning, and Development of Practical Skills. The mentorship support was given at least 3 times during these process. Both groups were obliged to register all outputs from the activities performed. An online questionnaire was developed and used to access the perceptions about the outcomes and satisfaction of the all the participants in the Peer-Mentoring process. 3. Objectives The aim of this study was to identify the perception of students on how PeerMentoring promote the development of mentorship and Physiotherapy clinical skills. 4. Results e discussion The main results of the questionnaire showed a high satisfaction towards the process from both groups. Students refer the importance that tutor had in the consolidation of the theoretical knowledge, clinical reasoning and also practical skills. Both groups expressed that the process was very rewarding and are looking forward to repeat this experience. The promotion of peer-mentoring facilitate peer-to-peer learning opportunities for 2nd year students in the topics addressed and could also increase leadership and teaching skills of 3rd year students, both outcomes have the potential to benefit elements outside of this process, including future co-workers or patients.
