Abstract
Background
The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Future of Nursing Scholars program supported nurses to complete PhDs in 3 years. Support mechanisms included mentoring by the program office and school faculty, and leadership development activities.
Purpose
To describe scholars’ perspectives of mentoring received by faculty during the accelerated timeline.
Methods
Of 201 scholars, 157 (78%) completed exit surveys, providing qualitative data on their experiences working with faculty mentors.
Discussion
Scholars highlighted strong mentorship (i.e., accessibility, emotional support) as the most important facilitator to program completion. Mentor challenges were identified as the second-most mentioned barrier to success, while the first was the accelerated timeline.
Conclusion
The scholars’ most-reported mentor-provided facilitators to success were availability and emotional support. Among scholars who noted barriers to their success caused by their mentor relationship, the most-reported issue was lack of access to their mentors.
