Become a preceptor for a Walden nursing student
Share what you know with the next generation of NPs, and skip the administrative work. You mentor in clinic. We handle the Meditrek nomination, the affiliation agreement, and the CastleBranch onboarding.
Start your placement, free
Tell us your program. We map the whole practicum. No payment until you are matched.
Why precept with us
No paperwork
We prepare the affiliation agreement, walk the student through the Meditrek nomination, and keep the timeline on track. You sign off hours, not forms.
Vetted, ready students
Students arrive screened through CastleBranch and matched to your specialty and setting, so the fit makes sense from day one.
Give back, on your terms
Set your own hours, caseload, and start date. Walden caps practicum at 12 hours per day spread over at least eight weeks, so the load stays reasonable.
Who can precept
- Board-certified NPs in FNP, PMHNP, AGPCNP, AGACNP, or PNP practice
- Physicians (MD or DO) and, for some courses, qualified PAs
- An active, unencumbered license in your state of practice
- A practice setting that matches the student's specialty and program goals
