Key Learning
Stakeholder engagement has played a key part in building this intuitive virtual placement model. A learner survey was sent out at the beginning of the project to gain a deeper understanding of what our learners required and what their expectations were of a virtual learning placement model. Project management principles have been essential to keep momentum and to set deadlines to reach the pilot phase. The pandemic whilst disruptive, has allowed us to think more creatively, work more collaboratively, and provided the opportunity to use technology enhanced learning. Blended and virtual learning methods can increase placement capacity and provide learners with the clinical knowledge and skills required to meet their learning outcomes. This is a new way of delivering a clinical placement and it will require continued monitoring and evaluation to ensure the quality of the learning experience is not compromised.
