Mentoring Promotion/Tenure-Seeking Faculty: Principles of Good Practice Within a Counselor Education Program

In this article, the authors describe a successful program based on the 10 principles for good mentoring recommended by Sorcinelli (2000). Application of the principles within a combined formal and informal mentoring approach is described, as are the experiences of junior faculty whose careers have been shaped within this system.
