1 For registered nurses and midwives the NMC Standards to support learning and assessment in practice (2006) require that students undertake mentor preparation programmes that are a minimum of 10 days, of which at least 5 days are protected learning time. Students on the module are required to evidence achievement of these 10 days and attend all of the workshops unless they are prevented from doing so by illness or some other domestic or personal emergency.

2Nurses and Midwives are required to have “experience in mentoring a student under the supervision of a qualified mentor” (NMC 2006). The applicant will require a support from a qualified mentor, already on a live register in their work place, for the duration of this module. Please contact the module leader* with any queries.

3All midwifery mentors will have met the additional criteria to be a sign-off mentor as part of their preparation programme (NMC 2006), and therefore should be in a position to mentor students passing through an appropriate progression point as agreed by the NMC Midwifery Committee (2007)

4. If no up to date satisfactory placement audit is available for the named applicant's workplace, please contact the module leader* as soon as possible for the application to progress
