Graduate Clinical Preceptor Toolbox

College of Nursing students benefit tremendously from the guidance and generosity of Clinical Preceptors.  The time spent with preceptors gives our students hands-on experience that is an invaluable supplement to what they learn in class.

The Clinical Preceptor Toolbox is an online resource for our preceptors off-campus.  Here you can find general information about the College of Nursing and its guidelines as well as benefits, tips, and evaluation forms. 

We hope you find this toolbox helpful.  If you have any suggestions for this toolbox section, please send us an email.

If you know someone who is interested in precepting MSN or DNP students, please send us an email.
