Abstract

Preceptors play a critical role in the education of nurse practitioner students. However, preceptors are in short supply. This descriptive study (n = 29) used an online survey to seek preceptors’ perceptions on motivators for precepting and how academic institutions can recruit and support preceptors and strengthen academic-practice partnerships. Resources for effective preceptor experiences included a better understanding of the curriculum, student learning objectives, contact with faculty, and formal preceptor training. Recruitment strategies focused on collaboration with practices and administrators. Access to free continuing education programs, faculty relationships, and adjunct faculty status were identified as top motivators to precept nurse practitioner students.
