Holistic professional development programs for in-service teachers enhancing their mentorship skills and supporting their overall well-being have become inevitable part of the academic calendars of progressive institutions given the renewed and well-justified emphasis by policies and for their known and established benefits. Though scanty in number, integrated programs supporting the development of mentorship skills among in-service teachers have been reported to be of qualitative benefit in raising their performance bar. The present study reports the formulation and validation of a Professional Development Programme on Mentorship for in-service teachers and its implementation through an intervention adopting the quasi-experimental, single-group pre-test and post-test design. The program module, designed as per the ADDIE model, consisted of five units focusing on self-efficacy, outcome expectancy and skills development in four areas: personal, professional, instructional, and assessment. A group of 48 (n = 48) in-service teachers participated in the study and responded to the Mentor Efficacy Scale, a self-assessment questionnaire, before and after the intervention. Analysis of the pre-test and post-test data shows a significant increase in self-efficacy and outcome expectancy variables of mentorship among in-service teachers. The study's findings offer valuable insights for advocating the professional development program on mentorship skills to build and sustain a professional learning culture, a robust support system for colleagues and a positive school culture. Given the positive and promising results of the program, there is scope for further research exploring the long-term effects of the intervention with a mixed-method design. The Author(s) 2025.
