EXPERIENCE IN IMPLEMENTING MENTORING AT A MEDICAL UNIVERSITY

Abstract

At the present stage, mentoring is considered, on the one hand, as a personnel technology that ensures the systematic transfer of knowledge, skills and attitudes from a more experienced employee to a less experienced one, or, on the other hand, as a pedagogical technology that ensures the formation of the personality of a future specialist, a harmonious entry of a person into work. The article presents the experience of implementing a mentoring program for graduates of a medical university. The author describes his own developments on monitoring the dynamics of educational outcomes of the mentoring program through an assessment of the motivational, personal, competence, and professional growth of mentees. Recommendations for improving the quality and effectiveness of the mentoring process in medical education are considered.
