General Info
City and QMUL are inner London Universities with distinct and diverse student populations. QMUL has 10,000 students in total, 21% of whom are in the School of Medicine and Dentistry (SMD) and City has 13,000 students, 23% of whom are studying Nursing and Midwifery and the Allied Health Professions, including Speech and Language Therapy and Radiography.
The CETL will enable the Universities to better match the teaching provision to the learning needs of a diverse student body. This will improve our ability to identify and support students in difficulty and enhance the capability of teachers and learning support staff.
Key benefits of CETL for students are:
- increased access to high quality simulated learning environments with expanded facilities, updated equipment and extended opening hours.
- facilities for students to book supervised practice in the centre at convenient time.
- better support for interprofessional learning.
- greater variety of learning support using structured programmes for diagnosing learning needs and recording progress – responding to the variety of ways that student learn and giving appropriate help to those in difficulty.
- greater relevance to practice by bringing more NHS based teachers into close contact with the CETL.
CAREERS IN HEALTHCARE
The excellent teachers of tomorrow’s students will come from the NHS and we will identify potential and help them develop. Students prefer to learn in practice settings and therefore consistency between skills rehearsal and the real-life environment is essential to authenticity. Self-evidently, the NHS is virtually a monopoly employer of graduates in health and its needs are a priority for healthcare educators.
