Frequently Asked Questions

A few quick answers to the questions we hear most often from prospective preceptors and students.

Who can apply for a preceptorship with CDS?

Our preceptorship opportunities are intended for students enrolled in accredited nurse practitioner programs who need supervised psychiatric clinical experience as part of their academic training.

What should I prepare before submitting my request?

Please have your school information, rotation type, expected dates, required hours, contract deadline, and an updated PDF resume ready before completing the form.

How far in advance should I apply?

We recommend submitting your request as early as possible. Early applications give us more time to review your needs, confirm availability, and complete any required coordination with your program.

Does submitting the form guarantee placement?

Submitting the form does not guarantee placement. Each request is reviewed based on scheduling availability, program fit, documentation requirements, and clinical capacity.

Will someone contact me after I apply?

Yes. Our team will review your submission and follow up if we need additional details or if the next steps are available for your requested timeline.

What types of details are most important in the application?

The most helpful details include your school, program, rotation dates, number of required hours, specialty needs, and any deadlines tied to contracts or onboarding.

Can I apply if my school has a contract deadline?

Yes. If your school has a contract or approval deadline, include that date in the form so we can review your request with the right timing in mind.

Do I need to upload a resume?

Yes. We ask for a current PDF resume so we can better understand your background and review your request more efficiently.

What if I am still finalizing my rotation dates?

You can still reach out, but the more complete your timeline is, the easier it is for us to assess availability and determine whether we are a good fit.

Can I share extra notes about my request?

Absolutely. The form includes space for additional notes, and we encourage you to include anything that may help us understand your goals, timing, or placement needs.
