Our SOAR Preceptorship Programme at WCHC

Our SOAR Preceptorship Programme is a 12-month mandatory programme combining group classes and
one-to-one support from an experienced registrant known as a Preceptor. This supports learning from best practice and networking with peers.
As a SOAR Preceptee you will have a badge to help others recognise that you are in a transitional process and to remind them of the support you need.

leadership, decision making and much more
