Abstract
Due to limited oncology education in many graduate nursing programs, oncology advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) often serve as preceptors for APRNs new to oncology. A needs assessment surveying familiarity, perceived importance, and perceived confidence with preceptor competencies among APRNs at a comprehensive cancer center found that 75.23% had been preceptors, whereas only 36% reported training. Findings indicate that the educational needs of APRNs new to oncology may be addressed through development of preceptor programs providing knowledge and skills for effective clinical teaching strategies. Preceptor preparation, role support, and development are essential for successful learning experiences.
