Practice Teacher Consolidated Practice (NMC Stage 3 outcomes)

As an NMC registrant, this work-based module will give you a formal opportunity to self-record and develop your practice to achieve Stage 3 Practice Teacher status. You'll work towards a recordable local qualification that satisfies NMC requirements for due regard in the supervision of student health visitors, school nurses and occupational health nurses.

You'll study at Anglia Ruskin and also in your workplace, under the supervision of a practice teacher with sign-off authority. Here at the University, you'll undertake modules 1 and 2 of the Postgraduate Certificate in Medical and Healthcare Education.

As part of this module, you'll complete a self-assessment document to evidence the achievement of the eight competency domains (Pt 2.2.2; p.23-24, NMC 2008, Standards to Support to Support Learning and Assessment in Practice).

On successful completion of both the PG Cert modules and the practice teacher outcomes, we'll provide confirmation to your NHS Trust employer so that annotation of your details can be uploaded to the live mentor database, recording your practice teacher status.

Your employer will need to offer at least 30 days protected learning in both University and practice settings. This includes ten academic study days on modules 1 and 2 of the Postgraduate Certificate in Medical and Healthcare Education.

If you want to go on to study NMC Stage 4: Educational Practice for Professional Learning for NMC Registrants (Postgraduate Diploma Medical and Healthcare Education), this module provides a foundation for that.
