To report the findings of how Canadian preceptors perceive and subsequently evaluate diverse levels of trainees during pharmacy clerkships. Using modified Delphi technique, 17 Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) preceptors from across Canada categorized 16 student narrative descriptions pertaining to their perception of described student performance: exceeds, meets, or falls below their expectations. Twelve (75%) student narratives profiles were categorized unanimously in the final round, six of which were below expectations. Out of 117 ratings of below expectations by responding preceptors, the majority (115, 98%) of post-baccalaureate PharmD students described would fail. Conversely, if the same narrative instead profiled a resident or an entry-to-practice PharmD student, rotation failure decreased to 95 (81%) and 89 (76%), respectively. Pharmacy preceptors do not uniformly judge the same described student performance and inconsistently apply failing rotation grades when they do agree that performance falls below expectations.
报告加拿大导师在药学实习期间如何感知和评估不同水平的学员的发现。使用改良 Delphi 技术，来自加拿大各地的 17 名药学博士 (PharmD) 导师对 16 名学生的叙述描述进行了分类，这些描述涉及他们对描述的学生表现的看法：超出、符合或低于他们的期望。在最后一轮中，有 12 份（75%）学生叙述档案被一致分类，其中 6 份低于预期。在回应导师的 117 次低于预期的评分中，大多数（115 名，98%）的本科后药学博士学生被描述为会不及格。相反，如果同样的叙述描述的是住院医师或执业药学博士学生，轮转不及格率分别下降到 95%（81%）和 89%（76%）。药学导师不会统一判断相同的描述性学生表现，并且在他们确实认为表现低于预期时，不会一致地给予轮转不及格的成绩。
