This page defines the ticket creation and management process Ambassador Mentor (mentor) will use when working with an Ambassador Candidate (candidate). This process starts when the candidate contacts a mentor as defined in 'Choose a Mentor
Candidate Contacts a Mentor
If the candidate is following the process, they will eventually contact a mentor by email. Said mentor should then respond back as soon as possible. The mentor will do one of two things:
- Inform the candidate that they are unable to mentor at this time.
- Accept the candidate and start the mentoring process.
Create a Ticket to Track Progress
If the mentor accepts the candidate, the mentor will create a ticket in the FAmA Trac. This ticket will track the mentoring progress for the candidate.
Mentoring the Candidate
Once the ticket is created, the mentor guides the candidate. This is done based upon recommendations on the The Ambassadors Membership Service page.
Mentor Thumbs Up
When the mentor is comfortable that the candidate is ready to become a full ambassador, the Mentor Status should be updated to 'Mentor thumbs up'.
Approval
Mentor approves the candidate officially, sponsoring him to the FAS Ambassadors Group and closing the candidate's ticket as 'SPONSORED'. An email is sent informing the candidate of his approval and the Trac ticket is updated with congratulations.
