A mentoring program is a good idea but I'd like to raise a possible issue.

When we take the exams, we must comply with a note of confidence. Will
mentors be allowed to talk about the exams? In my personal experience,
once you get certified, people begin to ask things about the exams.

Mentors should have a clear and concise instructions concerning what they
can and can not say about the exams.

Of course.  However, the audit would be mostly calling schools to ensure that
courses were taken, contacting mentees (is that a word), getting a reference
letter from the employer for professional work claims, etc...

I was thinking that the affiliate would more be the gatherer of the
information (due to local access) and then forward it to LPI for final say.

But you're right, we're not talking about mentoring any more :)
