A preceptor's impact can have ripple effects that extend far beyond the student and the program. Positive learning experiences for students start with strong and mutually beneficial relationships between experiential learning site leadership and the educational program.
This session will include perspectives and insights from a site Director of Clinical Nutrition and a Dietetic Internship Program Director on their collaborative strategies to provide meaningful learning experiences for students while also engaging preceptors.
This session will also describe methods for educators to serve as a resource for experiential learning site leaders and review benefits to hosting students for site leadership. Interactive scenarios will also be used to showcase how to apply strategies for the collaborative problem solving of complex situations that arise during experiential learning.
