Portfolio route to ACP accreditation with HEE - Do you consider yourself to already be an Advanced Practitioner but are not currently recognised as such by HEE and wish to gain this recognition? HEE has announced a further opportunity for acreditation via a supported portfolio route. It appears they are looking for expressions of interest to determine demand via a very simple online form. THis needs to be completed by 28th September at 5pm but requires no comitment at this stage. If this is something you are intersted in further, information is available and the link to the application form is on the Centre for Advancing Practice’s ePortfolio (supported) route’s webpage

Are you interested in some free CPD learning to refresh your knowledge on the hot topic of menopause and HRT? Or perhaps, on a more personal note, you may wish to learn more about this for yourself/your friend/spouse/siblig. Then please join Dr Kathryn Patrick on 3rd October at 19:00 from the comfort of your own home (or office!) for a relaxed and informative webinar, with the opportunity for Q&A at the end. This session is designed to support you in managing these patients, refreshing your previous knowledge and, hopefully, adding something new to learn.

Interested in finding out more about T Levels? Do you want to grow your own workforce? Are you a training provider and need quality placements for your students? If so, please see flyer here for more information and sign up to one of our free webinars. T Levels are technical qualifications that have been designed in collaboration with both employers and education providers to ensure the qualification meets the needs of the employers and prepares the student for their next steps into an apprenticeship, skilled employment or higher education. Students will be required to undertake an industry placement, giving them on the job experience, which can provide invaluable support for all types of settings in the health and care sector offering that “extra pair of hands” where and when they are really needed.
