Mentor Program
ASDA members have expertise in most facets of philately and several have volunteered to "mentor" those who might benefit from their expertise.If you are selected to participate (the number of mentors is obviously limited and we want to ensure that we get a good match between prospective clients and mentors), you will be assigned to a mentor who:
Will entertain your questions by email (no telephone calls unless invited by mentor
Will advise you on how best to improve your collecting skills by citing appropriate references, including images or studies that may be part of the mentor's repertoire
Will not appraise specific material but may comment on evaluation trends or relevent parameters
Will not try to sell you anything during the course of the mentoring relationship
The Mentoring relationship will last for one year unless the client or the mentor wishes to terminate it sooner
If you are are an adult who thinks this program may be for you, you can apply by contacting the program coordinator, Don Tocher, at dontocher@earthlink.net
