Mentoring Program

The goals of the NGCSU Faculty Mentoring Program are to:

  • promote teaching excellence among new and adjunct faculty

  • assist new and adjunct faculty to achieve their full potential through collaboration with a network of experienced, successful faculty members

The faculty mentoring program is intended strictly for faculty development purposes and not as a component of the faculty evaluation process.  Faculty mentors complete an official training program and volunteer their time to provide confidential assistance to new faculty members in areas such as:

  • classroom observation
  • implementing varied teaching and assessment strategies
  • preparing for pretenure review
  • documentation of teaching effectiveness and
  • development of faculty evaluation goals.

New faculty interested in participating in the NGCSU Faculty Mentoring Program should click on the picture of each NGCSU faculty mentor to examine information that will aid in the selection process.  The next step for the new faculty member is to contact the mentor by E-mail or by phone to determine if the relationship is agreeable to both of you.  The mentor will notify the program coordinator of the formation of the mentoring team.
