Be a voice for students and preceptees in the region

Nursing, midwifery and allied health professional (AHP) students in the East of England have a unique opportunity to share their knowledge and give feedback on regional projects as students and preceptees (newly qualified) quality ambassadors.

The roles for both student quality ambassador and preceptee quality ambassador are a fantastic development opportunity where you will work with peers across the region and NHS England workforce training and education (WT&E) directorate colleagues.

The group meet online monthly to hear updates on projects and feature regional topics, as well as holding discussions to gain your views. Ambassadors will potentially be involved in future regional work, project activity and opportunities for our student council launching soon.

Your involvement will also ensure student and preceptee’s voices help support the region’s perspective on the NHS Long Term Workforce Plan (LTWP) and builds on our prior ‘RePAIR’ workstream, both aiming to improve the student experience and staff retention.

The role is a great developmental opportunity for both students and preceptees open to all nursing, midwifery and allied health professionals (AHP) from all qualification routes, inclusive of apprenticeships and return to practice.

A recommendation of joining as an ambassador should be sought from your university as a student, or from your employer as a preceptee.
