Become a Paid Preceptor
Receive an honorarium as a
Student Midwife Preceptor
We need well-prepared Midwives in the workforce. But in order to have them, we must provide them with hands-on clinical time with willing and qualified preceptors. But healthcare today makes that difficult. You might be willing to precept, but feel you deserve a little something for your time and expertise! Current research indicates more and more providers feel the same. Well, we happen to agree with you. While we can't "pay you for your time," we can provide you with an honorarium to say thank you, and that is better than another coffee mug, we always say!
So please become a student midwife preceptor. The students need you!
Thank you for giving back to the next generation of Midwives!
