I.
Requirements for Mentors
|
1. |
Mentors must be
registered with the caste at least 2 Gorean
years (6 months) |
|
2. |
Mentors must exhibit a
thorough knowledge of the monetary system of Gor
and the information maintained on the caste web
site by which we, as a caste, role play
merchants. While there are other reference tools
available, in order to standardize our caste as
much as possible, we must rely on one source as
the basis of our role play. |
|
3. |
The Merchant Council
shall interview (either in person or by email)
all mentor volunteers to ensure they are
adequately equipped to teach a new merchant. |
|
4. |
If a mentor fails in
his/her duties to an applicant without just
cause, the mentor may be placed on probation
after an investigation and hearing. |
|
5. |
A list
of qualified mentors shall be maintained on the
caste web site. |
|
6. |
A list of mentors with
specializations shall also be maintained on the
caste web site. |
|
7. |
*All mentoring logs
provided by to the Merchant Council in support
of a registrant's application are strictly
private and shall not be shared with anyone with
the exception of the mentor, the applicant and
the Merchant Council. Violation of this rule
without the express approval of the mentor,
applicant and Merchant Council shall result in
expulsion from the caste. |
|
8. |
*All mentoring logs
are due within one mun month of the submission
of the registrant's application; provided,
however, that if the mentor and/or applicant
have personal time constraints that make it
impossible to complete within one month and the
Merchant Council is notified of such, the time
may be extended. Failure to complete or seek an
extension within one month shall result in the
application being denied. The applicant may
reapply when he/she has time to complete the
process. |
II. The
Mentoring Process
|
1. |
The applicant chooses
a mentor. |
|
2. |
The applicant submits
his/her application and test to the mentor. |
|
3. |
The mentor reviews the
application and, if there are errors, reviews
those questions with the applicant. If the
applicant has scored less than 80% on the test
portion of the application, the mentor shall
have the applicant re-apply |
|
4. |
The mentor forwards
the application to the Third Chair. |
|
5. |
The mentor
then works with the applicant (either in role
play or in writing; provided, however, that the
third session must be in role play) on three
specific areas of training, logs of which shall
be provided to the Third Chair:
|
A. |
The coinage of
Gor, its value, and pricing of goods. |
|
B. |
The
definition, expectations, sub castes of
and interaction within the caste with
emphasis on the applicant‘s areas of
interest/expertise. |
|
C. |
The
interaction with and sale of goods to a
customer which the mentor must observe. |
|

a learning process. If the mentor believes the
applicant needs more work on a particular
matter, another session on said matter should be
completed and logged. |
