Abstract
ABSTRACT Induction support for beginning education professors is rarely provided. To address this gap, qualitative descriptive research was conducted by asking a national sample of experienced education professors about challenges faced and met as new faculty members. The resulting seven induction themes for beginning education professors are discussed in targeted sections with suggestions for application in practice. Each section concludes with a set of five key questions to assist in facilitating the induction of beginning education professors on college campuses. The ATE Induction System for New Professors (ISNP) is based upon the seven induction themes and was collaboratively designed to provide information, experiences, and mentoring support for beginning education professors. Recommendations for additional study include empirical research to identify microcosms within campus cultures and expand the research base on tools, strategies, and collegial supports for new education faculty. Comprehensive systemic induction for beginning education professors is a critical long-term priority.
