Welcome Clinical Preceptors

Clinical teaching is one of the most important ways we shape the next generation of physicians. Every patient encounter, hallway conversation, and moment of reflection can become a powerful learning opportunity for a trainee.

Being a clinical teacher does not mean having all the answers or delivering formal lectures. It means helping learners think through clinical problems, modeling professional practice, and creating a safe environment where questions, curiosity, and growth are encouraged.

This page brings together practical tools and strategies to support you in that role. You will find resources on approaches such as the One-Minute Preceptor, strategies for giving meaningful feedback, ways to navigate the hidden curriculum, and tips for teaching efficiently in busy clinical settings.

Whether you are new to teaching or have years of experience, these resources are designed to support the everyday moments where clinical learning happens.
