| Many career centers facilitate establishment of internships and preceptorships. |
| Medical education has responded to these changes by increasingly using community-based physicians to provide preceptorships throughout the four-year medical curriculum. |
| Students were asked to list preceptorships completed. |
| The courses consist of personalized one-on-one proctorships, fundamental and advanced preceptorships, and national symposia. |
| Therefore, effective preceptorships are necessary in easing the newly licensed registered nurse's transition to practice. |
| The results document the lack of preceptorships available to new graduate nurses in the perioperative setting in this geographic region. |
