What is the difference of preceptorship and mentorship?

Preceptorship typically involves a more formal relationship where a more experienced professional guides, teaches, and supervises a less experienced individual in a specific field, such as in clinical settings. Mentorship is a broader term that involves a supportive relationship where a more experienced person provides advice, guidance, and support to a less experienced individual to help them develop personally and professionally. While preceptorship is often focused on skill development, mentorship can encompass personal and professional growth.
