In response to conversations during our Midwifery Student Social Hour and the consistent call from students for reliable, accessible clinical opportunities, NACPM is proud to launch the NACPM Preceptor Directory—a national, opt-in resource designed to connect student midwives with midwives who are open to serving as preceptors.

This innovative directory builds on the visionary idea first championed by Claudia Booker, whose legacy of mentorship continues to shape the profession. The first iteration of this tool was developed at the National College of Midwifery by Cassaundra Jah and is now being elevated to the national stage through NACPM’s platform and student engagement initiatives.

Midwives who are open to serving as preceptors can easily share their information via a simple Google Form. Once the directory populates at least 5 preceptors, it will then be made available exclusively to student members through a secure, password-protected page on our website.

This is a vital step toward strengthening mentorship pathways, building relationships across generations, and supporting the education of the next wave of Certified Professional Midwives.

Student members will be able to browse the directory and connect directly with preceptors whose backgrounds and interests align with their learning goals.

This project is part of our broader commitment to expand access to midwifery education, deepen community connection, and build a stronger, more supported CPM workforce. If you have any questions please reach out to our Operations and Engagement manager, Abriah at membership@nacpm.org.
