Practice Assessor (and Practice Supervisor) Workshop and ePAD Training

This is an online course

Welcome to Kingston University, new Practice assessor/ Practice supervisor/ ePAD training (can also be used as an update). We are really looking forward to meeting you and discussing the important role of developing the student nurse and starting your journey in practice education. Please read the following instructions. 

QR codes at the end of the sessions will allow you to leave and register for the overall 'award' you are seeking. At the end of this session there will be an opportunity to take a screenshot to evidence your attendance. This is your certificate so make sure you look out for them. No certificates are sent out afterwards.

Please note these workshops are intended for employees of Kingston University practice partners only and by attending, you are stating you are up to date with your revalidation and active on the register.

Please register (for this session) using your organisation/professional email address. Bookings made from personal email addresses or from staff not supporting Kingston University students will be cancelled (if in doubt, please speak to your education lead, as above, to see whether you are eligible).

The workshop consists of three components and staff can choose which element/s they need to attend if already qualified: All sessions are required if training to be a new Practice Assessor. Please see below which sessions you are required to attend if training to be a new Practice Supervisor.

The entire days' attendance is required to be a new PA (even if it's not all completed at once) to earn the certification; and relevant e-Learning detailed in the event page must be completed before any of the session starts.

You must then present yourself to your lead/educator lead in order to be supported in the new role. You may also be asked to document your name in the chat at intervals in order to ascertain attendance.

There are e-learning modules that accompany the online day. These modules can be found on the Pan London Practice Learning Group website. The page is clear about what e-learning modules and revise and refresh videos are required for the role you are preparing for.

• New Practice assessor? Please complete ‘Fundamentals of the PA role’ and ‘Assessing neurodivergent students’. Please also watch all the ‘revise and refresh’ videos.
• New Practice Supervisor? Please complete ‘Fundamentals of the PS role’ and ‘supporting neurodivergent students’. Please also watch the revise and refresh videos entitled ‘Initial interview’ and ‘Effective feedback’.
• Attending  for an update? If you are here for an update then please watch the ‘revise and refresh’ videos as well as any other content that you feel is useful depending on experience and confidence levels.

The University does not need to see evidence of these e-learning modules, but your employer may wish to.
