At Barts Health, we offer a multi-professional Core Preceptorship Programme designed to support newly qualified practitioners (Nurses, Midwives, Allied Health Professionals and Health care scientists) during their first 12 months of registration. The programme is 12 months and includes six structured sessions delivered in months 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, and 12. It provides a blended learning experience that combines face-to-face workshops, workplace-based learning, pastoral support, and coaching from senior staff members. The aim of the core preceptorship programme is to help preceptees confidently transition from student to registered practitioner and therefore has a strong emphasis on developing soft skills such as communication and leadership skills.
In addition, as a continuation of the Core Preceptorship Programme, Barts Health offers a multiprofessional Beyond Preceptorship Programme for staff who are 12–24 months post-registration. Unlike the Core Preceptorship programme, which follows a structured programme, this programme follows a flexible “pick and mix” model, enabling staff to select six study days over a 12-month period, tailored to their profession and future career aspirations. Beyond Preceptorship provides a wide range of developmental opportunities, including simulation training, enhancement of core clinical skills, and the development of leadership and management capabilities.
