Peer Mentor Training

Each district is required to provide first-year Provisional Educators with a TRAINED mentor.  This one-day training provides mentors with specific skills, strategies, and tools needed to successfully mentor a new colleague.

This training emphasizes the following basic principles:

· A period of induction is important for all provisional educators.

· A common vision is important to define effective educator practices.

· The professional relationship between the provisional educator and the mentor is critical to the success of the induction program.

· Provisional educator’s attitudes and professional practice are dynamic; effective mentors align their support to educator needs.

· Effective mentoring includes crucial conversations about improving professional practice.

· Mentors help provisional educators reflect and develop professional goals

 

Cost: Free (Fees for this workshop will be paid by the CESA 8 2018-19 Peer Review and Mentoring Grant received from the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction.)
