Table 1
Results of the regression analysis regarding the initial training of teachers, and its influence on (a) the quality of the teaching-learning-assessment process of beginners; (b) the effort made in the professional activity; and (c) the quality of the relationship with the students, established by the coordinating teacher.
| Variables | B (SE) | Beta | t | p | R 2 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Quality of the teaching-learning-assessment process of beginners | 0.272 (0.029) | 0.480 | 9.47 | <0.001 | 0.246 |
| Effort made in professional activity | 0.234 (0.028) | 0.423 | 8.08 | <0.001 | 0.210 |
| Quality of the relationship with the students, established by the coordinating teacher | 0.302 (0.028) | 0.535 | 10.96 | <0.001 | 0.295 |
Note. The analyses are based on N = 301 participants.

Results of the moderation analysis, analyzing the influence of the beginner’s openness to get involved in his own training and development as a moderator in the relationship between the duration of the quality of the mentoring program and the pedagogical competence of the beginner teacher.
| Variables | B | SE | t | p |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Intercept | 1.242 | 502.03 | −174 | 0.143 |
| Quality duration of the mentoring program (P) | 16.04 | 10.04 | 1.60 | 0.111 |
