Abstract
This study assesses the perception of an intern nurse related to the role of a preceptor in achieving their learning outcomes throughout the internship clinical learning outcomes. The objective was to examine the nursing intern's perception regarding the role of a preceptor in achieving their best learning performance. Seventy-four intern or nursing students were enrolled for the study and subjected to answer a self-reported questionnaire comprising socio-demographic data and the intern's perception on achieving learning outcomes. Most of the intern students either strongly agreed or agreed regarding the effectiveness of preceptor's role in achieving their learning outcomes during the internship period, a significant relationship between marital status and age of the intern student and their perception of the preceptor's role. Preceptors have proved to be effective and helpful for nursing students in achieving their learning outcomes throughout the clinical experience.
