Sklyarenko I.S., Blagoveshchenskaya M.A. Methodological foundations for developing the mentoring institution in law enforcement agencies. Penitentiary Science, 2024, vol. 18, no. 4 (68), pp. 449–458. doi 10.46741/2686-9764.2024.68.4.012.
Introduction: the article discusses methodological foundations for the development of the institution of mentoring in law enforcement agencies with an emphasis on the system of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation. The stated problem is actualized by the authors by providing concretized modern statistics of dismissals from the internal affairs bodies of the Russian Federation. Accordingly, the authors consider the institution of mentoring in law enforcement agencies to be a form of pedagogical support of professional activities of young employees. Justifying the institution of mentoring as a formal social institution, its functionality is revealed, which focuses on interaction with young employees and providing them with assistance within the framework of pedagogical support. Purpose: to theoretically comprehend the concept of mentoring in the law enforcement system, including the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Federal Penitentiary Service on the basis of the category of pedagogical support of young employees. Methods: a dialectical approach to the problem under consideration using general and particular methods of scientific cognition, such as: system-structural, dogmatic, logical, as well as the study of generalized experience and the method of studying products of activity. Results: the author’s position is expressed in the need to determine methodological foundations for the institution of mentoring in law enforcement agencies, including principles, content, tools for pedagogical support of young employees and, in general, the process of training mentors. Conclusion: it is important and necessary to develop methodological foundations of the institution of mentoring in law enforcement agencies. The methodological foundations for developing the institution of mentoring in law enforcement agencies, including the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation and the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia, most likely affect the effectiveness of young employees due to pedagogical support of their activities.
