HCPC launches consultation on preceptorship

26 Oct 2022

We have today launched a consultation on the introduction of a set of proposed guiding principles for preceptorship

High quality preceptorship programmes support health and care professionals to develop and maintain confident, safe and effective practice throughout their careers. The guiding principles aim to promote excellence and standardisation in the quality of preceptorship programmes available and form a key part of our corporate strategy to promote high-quality professional practice.

Following a pre-consultation engagement period with a wide range of stakeholders, including representation from across the UK and all professions we regulate, we have worked closely with Health Education England to develop the guiding principles for preceptorship which we are now consulting on.

We want the proposed principles provide the best support they can for registrants, employers and the wider health and care sector. We will therefore review all responses to our consultation carefully and consider how we might reflect feedback in the final principles to ensure this work reflects the needs of our diverse stakeholders and registrant groups. 

The consultation will close on 21 December 2022 at 23:59
