Client Spotlight

Preceptor is a super fun class to teach. Talking them through the videos and seeing their reaction, then hearing what they would do in that situation makes the program very interactive. I have already taught it this year about 4 or 5 times. Every time I watch the videos I see and hear new responses, they are just by far the best.

The preceptors greatly value the knowledge provided by this program. Before they were floundering without any clear path or support. Now, they have the tools to communicate challenges to their management team and constructively guide their preceptees.
