Pharmacist preceptors are fundamental to experiential placements and their training is considered essential to provide a quality and consistent student placement experience. To optimise the impact of training, the views of key stakeholders are required to inform the design of a training program. This commentary aims to synthesise the perceptions of the stakeholders, including community pharmacy preceptors, academic staff and students on preceptor training requirements. Their opinions were sought to gain an understanding of preceptor roles and associated skills and attributes, training and support requirements, and barriers and enablers to training. Responses indicated a preference for a flexible online training program, with content including an overview of the university curriculum and expectations, teaching strategies, how to provide feedback and student management. A role was identified for the university to acknowledge the work of preceptors and ensure that they are included in their plans for future experiential placement activities and curriculum development. Several barriers were identified, which challenged precepting, providing the opportunity for this commentary to focus on preceptor training that will address these key challenges, in the context of a clinical teaching environment.
