This work-based learning module enables students to gain academic credits for continuing professional development undertaken in their workplace.

 

The module aims to support the development of higher-level academic skills at level 6, to develop critical reflective practices, and the ability to develop a critical understanding of the contemporary evidence base and apply it to practice. Students are expected to develop a portfolio of evidence to support this.

 

Aims of the module are:

·      To allow students to develop more knowledge in their area of choice

·      To further develop student’s skills in evaluating the evidence in their area of choice, and applying this to their practice 

·      To enable reflection and encourage students to consider their own continued development needs in light of their area of practice
