Starring Roles: The four preceptor roles
and when to use them

Introduction
Requirement 5.10 of ASHP's Accreditation Standards for Pharmacy Residency Programs (including PGY1, PGY2, Community, Managed Care and International standards) states:
"Preceptors must demonstrate a desire and an aptitude for teaching that includes mastery of the four preceptor roles fulfilled when teaching clinical problem solving (instructing, modeling, coaching, and facilitating). Further, preceptors must demonstrate abilities to provide criteria-based feedback and evaluation of resident performance. Preceptors must continue to pursue refinement of their teaching skills."
