Preceptor Development: FAQs and Facts

Being a good preceptor is an ever-evolving process.  You must continually work to improve your skills and be willing to adapt your rotation to the needs of the trainee.  Eight frequently asked preceptor questions were addressed by role-model preceptors from across the country. The answers these award-winning preceptors give are intended to “provide useful and thought-provoking information” that can be tailored by other preceptors to improve their teaching skills and rotations.
