What will my relationship be with co-preceptors?

The CEO, Jack Lynch, and the VP of Planning and Business Development, Joel Port, will serve as your preceptors. They will be your primary source of mentoring and can help you navigate the Main Line Health System. You will also be spending a lot of time with all of the Senior Executives across the system.

How much exposure will I have to senior executives?
