The Mentorship Program provides a way for new players to become a productive member of IAAPA's online community. When the new player leaves the program they should be a fully confident and functional member of IAAPA. Information to join or volunteer for the Mentorship Program is also available.
What is the Mentorship Program?
The Mentorship Program is the IAAPA's means for providing new members assistance
with playing of Axis and Allies online. The Mentorship
program provides help to new members by assigning you a mentor to assist with navigating through the IAAPA website and play by email A&A.
Joining the Mentor Program
To join the mentor program all you have to do is e-mail the Mentorship
Coordinator. He will process your request and assign you a mentor. Mentors
will guide you through the basic procedures of game play, because if you
have never played an online play by e-mail game then it can be a bit confusing
and overwhelming at first. The mentorship program is here to alleviate some
of that frustration by giving new members someone to talk to and look for
advice.
In order to join the Mentor Program, you must have passed the Final Hurdle.
Volunteering for the Mentorship Program
To volunteer to be a mentor you must contact the Mentorship
Coordinator.
Participation in the Mentorship program is optional, with no
rewards from the IAAPA given other then a good pat on the back (and increased
involvement in our little community).
So why should a member become a mentor?. First off you help the Association.
Second you help bring a new player into our community. Third you get a warm
fuzzy feeling inside knowing you did something good for so many other people.
Mentorship is also a privilege and abuse of that privilege will result in
removal from the program and perhaps a stronger action, depending on the
infraction. IAAPA's Standards of Conduct are one of the aspects of the IAAPA
community that a mentor must not only live up to but impart to the new member.
