External mentorship facilitated through professional organizations can help meet faculty mentoring needs. This report compares and contrasts the program design, implementation, and initial outcomes of two distinct mentorship programs developed in a professional academic pharmacy organization. The Pharmacy Practice Section program matched 39 mentors to 52 mentees. The Women Faculty Special Interest Group (SIG) program matched 43 mentors with 77 mentees. On the initial assessments, nearly all participants had met with their mentor/mentee and reported positive experiences from their respective program. The two structures for association-based mentorship described can be used as models to develop interdisciplinary mentoring programs in other professional organizations.
