PRECEPTOR INFORMATION
​
Newlife International School of Midwifery (NISM) is fully accredited by the Midwifery Education Accreditation Council (MEAC).
NISM students complete their clinical education under the supervision of qualified midwifery preceptors in approved clinical settings. Students are responsible for identifying an appropriate preceptor and clinical site, while NISM reviews and approves clinical placements to ensure they meet institutional, professional, and applicable regulatory requirements.
​
Preceptors work closely with students to provide supervised clinical experience, mentorship, and evaluation throughout the student's clinical education. NISM provides ongoing oversight of students' clinical progress and works with preceptors to support the development and assessment of midwifery competencies.
