Table 2 Survey content analysis on suggested improvements to the program

From: Pharmacist and student evaluation of a preceptor training program in a regional Australian University: a multi-method study

Suggested improvements

Preceptor quotes

Time consideration

“Because of the depth, it takes a long time to get through”.

“Time required to complete”.

“Consider the time required by practising pharmacists in undertaking this study. The course content was interesting, however, could have been delivered in a much more time efficient manner”.

More pharmacy specific video examples

“I found the medical videos very interesting though and they certainly highlighted communication skills but believe this part of the programme could be improved with swapping over to pharmacy specific videos”.

“Would like to have more examples and videos on training highlighting more pharmacy specific roles”.

Consider the more experienced preceptor

“Course material was a little basic in some areas particularly for experienced preceptors”.

“Program should be considerate of the amount of experience the preceptor already has”.

More on JCU curriculum for non-JCU graduates

“A little more depth on the JCU pharmacy curriculum would be good as I am not a JCU graduate”.
