Description
Summary:ABSTRACT A nationwide survey was conducted to determine the existence and extent of faculty mentoring programs at schools/colleges of pharmacy in the U.S. A 21-item questionnaire was developed and pilot tested at two academic institutions. The revised survey was then mailed to the deans at each of the 78 colleges listed at the time by the American Association of Colleges of Pharmacy. Approximately 77% (60/78) of the schools/colleges of pharmacy responded to the survey, 11 (18%) indicated the existence of a formal mentoring program, and another 32 (53%) indicated the existence of an informal mentoring program at their academic institution.
