Evaluating poor performance in experiential learners is one of the most difficult challenges a preceptor faces. Unfortunately, this “failure to fail” phenomenon is common in nearly all health professions. This course uses a published framework to discuss why preceptors struggle to assess poor performance and provides strategies to overcome barriers to appropriately evaluate underperforming learners.

Upon successful completion of this application-based CPE course, pharmacy preceptors should be able to:
1. Identify six common barriers to providing accurate assessments of learners who are underperforming
2. Describe three enabler strategies that help overcome barriers identified
3. Analyze selected case studies in order to create strategies for accurate assessment
4. Identify sources of support when working with an underperforming pharmacy learner
