In 2005, twelve PMEA members met during the Summer Professional Development Conference to be trained as mentors. Since its inception, the program has assisted members, developed a webinar series, planned other professional development opportunities, and trained 57 additional members to serve as mentors.

PMEA currently has trained mentors available in every specialty area, instructional level, and demographic area. PMEA mentors are actively teaching in the area and level that they represent. These exemplary professionals are ready to answer any questions music teachers may have about lesson planning, classroom management strategies, assessment and data collection, communication, the SLO process, and to discuss problems both beginning and experienced music educators may be facing in their teaching situation.
