title: Examining competency-based orientation implementation.
abstract: A competency-based orientation program provides a structured, comprehensive approach to the process of orientation. However, the program is only as good as the implementation. It is important for management, preceptors, and orientees to be knowledgeable of the details of the program and the procedures involved in the implementation process. when problems arise, it is important that all those involved solve the problems in an organized, systematic fashion.
