Summary: | It is crucial to understand the experiences of academics in their early years to learn their perspectives, thoughts, and actions. In this comparative research, the authors aim to explore how informal mentoring works in Kazakhstani and Turkish higher education and wish to contribute to implementing a formal faculty mentoring program at the university as a means for young academics’ professional growth and career development.
