Going provincial: preceptoring and mentoring revisited in the health sciences. Part I.
This article describes the Preceptor & Mentor Initiative for Health Sciences in BC, a provincial strategy to facilitate preceptoring and mentoring. A web site was developed with a comprehensive preceptor/mentor framework and resources, based on best practices and applicable to all health sciences. Informal feedback indicates this Initiative is effective in supporting health sciences preceptoring and mentoring in BC. A formal evaluation will be conducted by March 2003 and reported in a future FORUM article.
