April 13, 2023

Live, Virtual Workshop

This workshop is FREE for Current and Former University of Wisconsin–Madison Preceptors

Contact your Preceptor Coordinator or Stacy Davison (sldavison@wisc.edu) for more information.

Workshop Focus

The focus of the workshop is on competence and skills that nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and physicians need when serving as preceptors. These include time management, critical thinking, providing evaluation and feedback, nurse practitioner/physician assistant program information, learner styles, motivating, working with a challenging preceptee, wellbeing/resiliency for preceptors, and precepting with telemedicine.

Statement of Need and Purpose

Advance practice provider (APP) training programs rely on high quality graduate clinical preceptors to provide real-world clinical experiences and socialize students to the role of the APP. Nurse practitioner, physician assistant, and physician training programs often do not include preceptor development. Many graduate clinical preceptors have never received formal preceptor training and feel deficient in their ability to set goals, create an adequate learning environment, provide feedback, and evaluate student performance in a busy clinic setting.

The purpose of this workshop is to prepare high quality graduate clinical preceptors to provide real-world clinical experiences and socialize students to the role of physician, physician associate, or advanced practice registered nurse. This workshop focuses on competence and skills that clinical preceptors need when serving as preceptors to advance practice nurses, physician assistants and other clinical graduate students. Content includes the topics of time management, critical thinking, providing evaluation and feedback, nurse practitioner/physician assistant program information, learner styles, motivating and working with a challenging preceptee, preceptor wellbeing, resiliency, and team support, and precepting with telehealth. Content is geared toward an interprofessional group and will address precepting strategies for a variety of settings, including inpatient and ambulatory care.

Intended Audience

This workshop is designed to meet the needs of nurse practitioners, physician assistants and physicians and other health care providers who precept graduate students in their clinical practice.

Elements of Competence

  • The American Board of Medical Specialties: Practice-based learning improvement, Interpersonal and Communication Skills and Professionalism
  • Nursing and Interprofessional: Roles/Responsibilities, Interprofessional communication and Teams and Teamwork
  • Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: Engage in self-reflection
