The Montana AHEC Preceptor Course trainings are complete and will no longer be offered. Please check back for future course offerings as available. 

The Montana AHEC Preceptor Course is an online, asynchronous training to help build the skills of all preceptors, new or seasoned. The course consists of five modules which are guided by Beth Ulrich's Mastering Precepting: A Nurse's Handbook for Success, Third Edition. 

  • Modules 1: The Preceptor Role
  • Module 2: Learning the Foundation of Precepting
  • Module 3: Precepting Strategies
  • Module 4: Communication
  • Module 5: The Pragmatics of Precepting and Precepting Specific Learner Populations

Guided by your online instructor, this course includes reading assignments, online videos, and the opportunity to dialogue and reflect with others in your small cohort through our facilitated discussion boards. Participants are welcome to complete the modules on their own time during the set cohort timeframe. Participants are expected to participate in the discussion boards, so we ask that you make time for this throughout the course timeframe and will receive a certificate of completion for 15.0 contact hours.

Who should participate?

The Montana AHEC Preceptor Development Course can be completed by APRNs, DNPs, DOs, MDs, PAs, and RNs.

Time commitment and structure

This course is online and asynchronous. While it can be completed at your own pace, participants will be enrolled in cohorts to enhance the learning virtual environment. The full course should take approximately 15 hours to complete.
