Kappa Omicron Nu is pleased to link the online course, Self-Managed Mentoring to ESAE through the AAFCS Web site.

Self-Managed Mentoring
(Copyright 2000 by Kappa Omicron Nu)

Description: Self-Managed Mentoring is not the traditional mentoring model that tethers a mentee to a wise elder but a mosaic-building process of self-development. Self-managed mentoring is a decision-making model that situates the responsibility onto the mentee and expands the notion of mentoring beyond traditional mentors to step-ahead mentors, peer mentors, niche mentors, parents and siblings, biographies, illuminating materials and media, reflection on field experiences.

The course was adapted from the education module, Mentoring: The Human Touch, by Susan S. Stratton, owner of Leading Edge Mentoring and Lisa H. Wootton and Dorothy I. Mitstifer of Kappa Omicron Nu. Self-Managed Mentoring offers four choices of depth: knowledge only, knowledge and selected experiences, self-managed life change, and life change facilitated by telementoring or e-mail mentoring. It can also be used for academic credit as a special problem, as a course or component of a course, and for continuing education or professional development units. Offered as a "freebie" to members and the public for self-managed personal development, other uses require the usual permission for copyrighted material.
