A successful pilot program served as a model for how educators in healthcare organizations can reduce the academic-practice gap by supporting preceptors. Preceptors received enhanced training using self-paced online modules and an asynchronous online problem-based learning. Statistically significant increases in self-efficacy and satisfaction with training were reported. Preceptor training included strategies for teaching prioritization, communication, and clinical judgment. Preceptors experienced sustained resilience, increased awareness of well-being, and more engagement in the precepting role.
