This Preceptorship builds on Community Practicums 1 and 2. In a Denturist practice, students apply clinical, laboratory and business skills under the mentorship of a registered Denturist. Students demonstrate the ability to work independently by the end of the Preceptorship. Students have the opportunity to apply knowledge and skills in the following areas: communication, professionalism, financial management, record keeping and infection prevention and control. During the Preceptorship, students complete the requirements of their portfolio as per the expectations of the College of Denturists of British Columbia. VCC faculty advisors collaborate with the preceptor and student to facilitate the Preceptorship experience.
