Insights from a pilot interprofessional preceptor development program using the Habits of Preceptors platform
This study found that a structured, asynchronous Habits of Preceptors (HOP) Academy program positively impacted clinician educators. Participants reported high satisfaction and improved teaching confidence and practices.
Area of Science:
- Healthcare Education
- Medical Training
- Clinician Development
Background:
- Preceptor training is crucial for healthcare education but often lacks formal preparation for clinicians.
- Existing development opportunities are frequently costly, fragmented, and lack structured self-reflection tools.
Purpose of the Study:
- To evaluate clinician satisfaction and perceived professional impact of the pilot Habits of Preceptors (HOP) Academy 101 Foundations Course.
- To assess the effectiveness of a novel, asynchronous, interprofessional preceptor development program.
Main Methods:
- A six-month, asynchronous, interprofessional pilot program (HOP Academy 101) was implemented.
- The course utilized curated content on the HOP Framework, guided self-reflection, and peer discussions.
- Semi-structured interviews were conducted with participants post-completion.
Main Results:
- Eighteen of 24 invited clinician educators participated; six were interviewed.
- Interviewees expressed high satisfaction, noting practical applicability of resources and peer engagement.
- Key growth areas included feedback skills, professional identity, and leadership capacity.
Conclusions:
- Structured, asynchronous preceptor development with peer dialogue and reflection is highly valued by clinicians.
- Participants reported increased confidence in precepting and a strengthened professional identity.
- This model may effectively address gaps in traditional continuing education for preceptors.
