Introduction One important key to successful precepting is moving the intern from some level of dependence to a high level of independence. In the dietetics field, a preceptor is similar to a mentor. The origin of the term "mentor" dates to the time of Homer, specifically to The Odyssey. Homer describes his hero, Odysseus, preparing to set out on a epic voyage, but his son, Telemachus, must remain behind. Odysseus asks a trusted friend, Mentor, to guide and counsel Telemachus in his absence. From this ancient literary figure, mentor has come to mean one who helps guide a protégé through a developmental process, whether that process be the transition from childhood to adulthood or from intern to professional or from novice dietetics professional to expert dietetics professional. Because of the complexity of this task, mentors are considered to be teachers, counselors, friends, role models, and more. As a preceptor with the ISU dietetics internship program you will fulfill many of these different roles. The American Dietetic Association has affirmed the three-pronged approach to training dietetics professionals: Didactic knowledge, supervised practice, and examination. The supervised practice component is crucial in preparing interns and fostering the skills they need to be entry-level practitioners.
