  • Significant improvements in both knowledge and self-efficacy scores were observed post-program.
  • Previous preceptor education and higher education levels correlated positively with self-efficacy.
  • Factors like prior experience, age, and employment location did not show a correlation with self-efficacy.
  • Conclusions:

    • Online education is a viable and effective method for enhancing preceptor knowledge and confidence in public/community health nursing.
    • Standardized curricula for preceptor education could further optimize outcomes.
