Placement expansion and innovation

Thank you to everyone who joined the webinar, we had over 620 attendees.

Whilst we aim to expand our workforce by increasing the number of Allied Health Professionals in education we need to ensure that we also have good quality placements and learning environments to support this. There is increasing potential to include simulation and TECS* placements as part of this.
any HEIs and Trust are doing this already, aim of the webinar is to:

 - Define what we mean by simulated and TECS* placements
 - Explain and share the opportunities and resources already in place to support simulation
 - Provide the regulatory and professional body position on simulation and TECS placements
 - Showcase examples from around the country, many of which are easily generalisable/applicable to different professions and areas.
