The role of preceptors in the University of Arkansas’ entry-level master’s program in athletic training education is the feature story of the program’s spring newsletter.
A PDF of the newsletter is posted on the website of the athletic training education program in the College of Education and Health Professions.
Preceptors who supervise clinical practice of the graduate athletic training education students are invaluable to the success of those students and to the program, but preceptors say they also benefit from the relationship. The program used about 40 clinical preceptors this semester.
Also in the newsletter are reports about student and faculty research, speakers on campus this semester, the incoming class and a message from Jeff Bonacci, program coordinator.
