The Nurse Preceptor Certificate Program utilizes research on teaching and learning, skill acquisition, and clinical reasoning. The implications for teaching and learning for the Novice, Advanced Beginner, Competent, and Proficient levels in the Dreyfus Model of Skill Acquisition will be presented. The program applies universal apprenticeships for any practice discipline—the Cognitive Apprenticeship, the Practice Apprenticeship, and the Ethical Comportment and Formation Apprenticeship, to organize the course content. A distinction is made between the mere application of technical knowledge and the productive use of knowledge in actual clinical practice (a higher-order form of situated thinking). Preceptor pedagogies for success include situated coaching, clinical scenarios, and debriefing skills. Canvas™ houses the virtual learning classroom, and course content is divided into (4) modules, each with a corresponding synchronous Zoom workshop.
