What is my primary preceptor supposed to do?
Your primary preceptor will provide overall coordination for your supervised practice experiences. This dietitian will either personally guide you as you develop entry-level competence or will coordinate other dietitians who may be guiding you. The primary preceptor is responsible for submitting frequent evaluations of your skills to the course instructor and is the primary contact for the program director and faculty. Each intern must have a minimum of three RD preceptors and may have as many more RD and non-RD preceptors as is appropriate. The additional RD preceptors will serve as either “Secondary” or “Additional” preceptors.
