Abstract
This guide book was put together over 2006 and 2007 using some of the latest research about what makes mentoring programs work well. It is detailed and easy to read and understand, and gives practical ideas about planning a program, and training mentors as well as finding useful resources to make programs run well. It comes with a handy CD that contains material useful for getting a program off the ground. The authors of the book have worked as both researchers and practitioners and brought a wide range of mentoring experience to the task.
