their home institutions. I wish this experience were possible for all new
teacher educators. Truly fantastic!” - 2016 ISNP Cohort Member

Register As a Beginning Professor!
Register for the 2022 cohort: Reserve a place in the summer, 2022, Induction Symposium for yourself or a new colleague. Participants will be contacted in advance so they can be matched with an ATE Mentor and preparation materials can be shared. ISNP is open to new faculty in years 1-3.
Deans and Chairs of Education Units: Register Your Beginning Faculty Members.
Assisting beginning faculty members in the initial years of a college or university career is a sound investment. ATE's ISNP participation provides resources, professional lenses for problem-solving, and instant access to content experts, prepared mentors, and national networking opportunities.
If you are a Department Chair or Dean, send your induction phase faculty beginning years 1, 2, or 3 in full-time professorial positions.
Be a Mentor to New Professors!
Volunteer to be a Mentor! A team of mentors is needed, with representation from diverse areas of specialization.
Mentors and mentees will be matched as closely as possible based on the mentee’s professorial position. Mentors will meet their mentee(s) at the summer conference (preferred - or virtually if unable to attend). If you would like to be an ATE Induction Mentor for a beginning professor, please email Dr. Mary Selke.
In your email message, please include: (a) contact information -- your name, current position, email, and phone, and (b) your areas of expertise – such as elementary education, educational administration, etc.
Register!
Register for Induction Symposium for New Professors (ISNP).
Registration will close on Friday, July 23rd. This will give ISNP participants time to complete a short survey, to assist us in matching you with an ISNP mentor, and a few preliminary activities, to introduce you to information that will be applied during the on-line Symposium.
We will also be scheduling a follow-up meeting via Zoom, no longer than 90 minutes, during the fall semester, on a day/time that fits with participants' schedules.
