Abstract:
Precepting is a demanding but important role for successful onboarding in healthcare institutions. However, preceptors face many challenges, including inconsistent formal training, selection, and evaluation. One health system took a unique approach to this challenge by developing a transition to practice preceptor program through the institution's professional governance culture. Program components include clearly outlined selection criteria, formal initial preparation, competency verification, resources, and recognition for preceptors.
