About Preceptor Training & Certification

Preceptoring is a unique specialty with its own core of knowledge and expertise associated with competent and engaged preceptors. Clinical preceptors are essential in every role and specialty. In academia, they equip students with necessary role competencies and skill training. Within healthcare organizations, experienced clinicians serving as preceptors continue to help expand upon best practices and provide the requisite orientation & onboarding for both newly licensed graduates and experienced clinicians who are new to the organization. The vast majority of healthcare organizations and academic institutions provide absolutely no training for their clinical preceptors. In those that do, such training is limited to a few hours, 1-2 times annually, and centered around logistics, paperwork, checklists, and timelines rather than the fundamental purpose preceptoring: effectively imparting knowledge, understanding, and critical thinking. The Preceptor Training Program, over the course of five (5) years, has developed an entirely evidence-based clinical preceptor training program based on the review and assessment of over 800 academic publications spanning over 40 years of research within the fields of nursing, medicine, advanced practice (APRNs & PAs), and pharmacy. Appropriately and well-trained clinical preceptors markedly improve key aspects of practice like safety and quality, as well as positively impacting retention, satisfaction, collaboration, institutional perception, resource utilization, and organizational wayfinding & navigation. Effective instructional and learning experiences guard against turnover, dissatisfaction, disappointment, and financial loss. Our comprehensive program consists of 25 modules (60 min each), delivered by subject matter experts and preceptoring leaders, designed to be taken in sequence. Modules are easily accessible online and can be done at the learner's pace. *Discount available for organizations purchasing in volume for staff.
