An awareness of the designated professional attributes interns use to evaluate their preceptors can be valuable feedback to a preceptor. The feedback is viewed periodically through the internship year by the regional director. The regional director will provide the site liaison with the intern’s feedback once the intern has graduated, unless an urgent issue is seen within the intern’s comments.
