Preceptor Resources & Training

We would like to thank each of you for your willingness to serve as a preceptor for Marshall University’s on-site or distance internship program. You are helping prepare our next generation of professionals and we are extremely grateful for your time and participation.

We hope you find this Preceptor Handbook helpful. This handbook is a means of providing beneficial information that will assist you in your role as a preceptor, but please know that we are always available to answer any questions you may have. In addition to reviewing this handbook, please complete our preceptor orientation course.

Program preceptors must be trained on strategies to recognize biases in self and others and reduce instances of microaggressions and discrimination. For the MUDI, preceptors must complete training on this topic every 3 years. If this is your first year as a preceptor for our program, please complete this training before working with interns. This training can be met through workplace training, FNCE or state AND sessions, or other ACEND resources.

You can find many different ACEND continuing education sessions for diversity, equity, and inclusion here. Please keep records of training completion.
