The research sample includes 58 scientific research articles that have been purposefully collected. Research data were collected from qualitative analysis of the studied documents. Based on the data analysis, peer mentoring components were classified into 5 dimensions and 29 factors. These dimensions include individual dimension (including factors; job skills, leadership skills, balance, decision-making skills, problem-solving skills, perceptual skills, accessibility, personality dimensions, motivation), organizational dimension (including On factors: professional development, support and encouragement, infrastructure, attention to professional components, organizational and managerial structure), cultural dimension (including factors; attention to cultural requirements) and dimension of requirements and musts (including On factors: dignity, pedagogical knowledge management, clear strategy, process personalization, cost-effectiveness, security, based on the principles of the workplace curriculum, based on hiatology, program requirements and role-paying) and communications (including component Such as, positive communication, social communication, communication in relationships and usefulness).
