“…This was a consistent theme reported in the literature (Cangelosi et al, 2009;Gardner, 2014;Santisteban & Egues, 2014;Schoening, 2013;White et al, 2010). To ease this transition, clinicians need formal preparation for the teaching role, which can include topics such as defining the faculty role, planning and guiding student experiences, using formative and summative evaluations, understanding ethical and legal considerations, dealing with difficult students, and incorporating simulation (Cangelosi et al, 2009;Reid et al, 2013;Schoening, 2013). Formal preparation can be offered as a face-to-face Clinical Nurse Academy (Cangelosi et al, 2009), as a 3 to 6 week online course (CNL, 2014;IUSON, 2014), or as a hybrid course such as the Eastern Shore Faculty and Mentorship Initiative (ES-FAMI), a 30-contact hour hybrid program that includes face-to-face meeting, teaching/learning simulation, and online components (Reid et al, 2013).…”
