Empower Mentor Program
The Empower Mentor Program (previously titled “Power Mentors”) is currently undergoing an exciting reconstruction where the focus of support will be for new faculty who are in the process of submitting their contract renewal documents. Stay tuned for a callout for seasoned mentors in Fall 2025 with a full pilot program launch in Spring 2026!
Lecturer Mentor Group (LMG)
Lecturer mentors are “seasoned” lecturers who have been recommended by their division chair and vetted through the LMG members. They provide individual and small group support to all Leeward lecturers regarding topics such as lecturer dossiers, human resources paperwork, lecturer benefits, classroom management, syllabus preparation, submission of grades, student issues, or anything related to teaching and learning at Leeward CC. The group also provides representation on shared governance committees such as Campus Council and Faculty Senate.
Feel free to contact any of the mentors for support today!
