Lothian Practice Based Learning Uni-professional Groups and Networks <\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Within Lothian, Practice Educators should have a Student Coordinator within their area of work. A Student Coordinator is an experienced Practice Educator responsible for the coordination of placement delivery and supporting practice educators in their delivery of Practice Based Learning (PrBL) within that area of health and social care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each Student Coordinator sits on their uni-professional Practice Based Learning Group. These groups meet 3-4 times a year in order to develop, improve and maintain the delivery of quality Practice Based Learning experiences across Lothian for their profession. This group also works to share the responsibility of PrBL delivery and prevent cancellation of placements through this shared responsibility. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The chair of each uni-professional group then sits on the Lothian AHP PrBL Network<\/strong> which comes together quarterly to share learning, collaborate and problem solve for all AHP professions.<\/p>\n\n\n
