The education of pharmacy students includes hundreds of hours of experiential education under the supervision of a licensed pharmacist called a preceptor. While this real-world education is instrumental in preparing students for their pharmacy career, many experienced pharmacists are hesitant to commit to becoming a preceptor.

Experienced pharmacists can learn about innovations in practice and new drugs on the market, and, with some training, students can help with basic tasks in everyday practice.
