preceptor programs

I would like to hear from anyone who has either participated in the development of a preceptor program or was a new hiree within the last 6-12 months. I am interested in finding out what type of rewards package (if any) was offered to the preceptors, i.e., PTO, paid continuing education, etc., and what good and not so good things did new associates experience during the time they were preceptored.

Greetings!!!

I love preceptor programs!!!

How are the preceptors rewarded??? It is based on budget, usually. You can give PTO for each orientee that they precept that stays 6 months-- this is good incentive to get them to do their best to help the new person learn their role & learn it well.

Another method would be giving a preceptor differential [e.g., $1.00 per hour more for days they are precepting].

Yet another method, is creating a 'preceptor' role and giving the preceptor a pay raise- not just while they are precepting, they get the money ALL THE TIME. But they must be prepared to precept whenever, and attend all mandatory preceptor training updates!

If you are on a very low budget- a gift certificate to a local mall or food store [$20-$25] for each person that they train would be quite in order.

I hope this helps!
