Abstract

The authors implemented and evaluated a preceptor training program to prepare registered nurses to become preceptors and to establish a nursing preceptor training program to promote knowledge of preceptorship among Jordanian nurses. A true experimental design was used. The sample consisted of 68 registered nurses recruited randomly from governmental, private, and university hospitals. A sociodemographic data form and a questionnaire on nurses' knowledge about preceptorship were developed for self-administration. The study results showed that the difference between the experimental (n = 30, M = 33/41, SD = 4.5) and control (n = 38, M = 26/41, SD = 4.6) groups after implementation of the preceptorship program was statistically significant (t = 5.5, df = 66, p = .000). The preceptorship program showed significant improvement in participants' knowledge of clinical teaching.
