Practice Supervisor/Assessor Workshop and ePAD Training

The workshop consists of three elements and staff can choose which elements they need to attend:

9.00-10.30 - SSSA Update: Overview of NMC Standards for Student Supervision and Assessment

This session is an update for existing Mentors, Practice Supervisors and Practice Assessors. It will also form the first part of the full day workshop for new Practice Assessors. See below for eLearning which is recommended to supplement this session.

11.00-12.30 - ePAD Training (electronic Practice Assessment Document)

This session will be delivered by MyKnowledgeMap who have developed the ePAD in partnership with the pan-London Practice Learning Group. All Roehampton Nursing students will be using the ePAD from September and you will have the chance to familiarise yourself with the system during this session.

13.30-16.00 - New Practice Assessor Training

This session will continue on from the morning workshops and will provide an opportunity for Registered Nurses with no previous mentorship/assessor qualification to become a certified Practice Assessor. It is expected that you will work as a Practice Supervisor initially before undertaking a Practice Assessor role – please check eligibility with your employer. Full day attendance is required and eLearning detailed below must be completed before the session.
