Developing consensus on the competency and assessment of pharmacist preceptors

Using a Delphi consensus method, by expert opinion, our study supports the perceived feasibility of assessing pharmacy preceptor competencies via a multimodal approach and clarifies who should assess each competency and how. Implementing these assessments can enhance preceptorship quality, facilitating consistent experiential placements for preceptees. The incorporation of preceptor assessment into accreditation standards should be considered essential to promote high-quality preceptorship and support the ongoing professional development of preceptors.
