What our standards say

We have several requirements in this area that must be met. The following standard is particularly relevant:

The definition of ‘educator’ in this context includes practice supervisors, so this standard sets out our expectations of the supported time and resources provided for practice supervisors. What ‘supported time and resources’ might mean will be different depending on the needs and ability of individual practice supervisors, student learning needs and programme outcomes, and any equality and diversity considerations.

It’s the AEI’s responsibility, with its practice learning partners, to ensure the supported time and resources provided upholds public protection and enables practice supervisors to support students to meet their learning outcomes.
