Delivering Quality Care Through Work-Based Learning

Study days

You will choose the equivalent of 24hrs of study in order to complete this course. These will be individually negotiated with your course leader.

The currency of the study days is important and therefore should not be more than two years old at the time you register to commence the course. The study hours could be undertaken as four study days or separate blocks of study sessions. We would expect that some of the learning is participatory learning (alongside other learners). It will also reflect your continuing personal and professional development needs, which you have agreed as part of your appraisal and personal development plan (Registered Nurses or Midwives will be able to use the reflective learning in completing their NMC revalidation).

• Training will take place off-site at your workplace

The aim of the course is to: 

• Offer a mechanism for achieving 20 academic credits at Level 6, through an assignment reflecting on retrospective learning gained from training and educational sessions, offered by your health/social care organisation. This is underpinned by taking a reflective approach to critically reviewing training and education experiences, in order to inform and enhance professional practice. 

The generic aims of negotiated workplace learning are to:

• Enable you to undertake a structured piece of work-based learning that will enhance the ability to maximise learning from a work experience
• Develop skills of personal development planning and reflection on learning experiences.
