Help us plan the new BAPO learner webpage

🤔 Are you on a learning pathway to become a prosthetist orthotist? 

🤔 Do you support those learners as an educator or employer (of apprentices)?

As part of the NHSE programme of work, we’d love your thoughts about how to shape a new learner-focused page on BAPO’s website. 

The plan is that it will be a ‘go to’ page to help pre-registration learners easily access BAPO resources of particular relevance to them. It will be open access for everyone, not just BAPO student members.

💡 The focus will be on providing access to BAPO information and resources that add value to, rather than replicate, resources learners already access from their education provider, employer, or practice-based learning environments. Things that it’s appropriate for the professional body to provide to support their journey to joining the professional workforce.

🌟 The important question is what would you like to see included on the page? 🌟

Initial suggestions include providing easy access to:

  • ‘A day in the life of …’ blog posts from colleagues within the profession to offer inspiration
  • BAPO short courses, webinars, Teatime Talks & other virtual events
  • The BAPO YouTube channel
  • Other BAPO professional affairs and practice resources
  • The BAPO Mentoring Programme
  • The BAPO (2024) Career Development Framework 
  • The BAPO (2024) Practice-based Learning Framework for Pre-registration Learners
  • The BAPO (2024) Early Career Guidance Framework 
  • Resources to support your preceptorship journey as you transition from learner to new HCPC registrant 

🤔 What else would you suggest we include?

🤔 How can we make this new webpage as useful to pre-registration learners as possible? 

Please let us know what you think! 🙏

Email your suggestions to Jo Watson (jo@drjowatsonconsulting.com), who is leading the work to develop the new webpage on behalf of The Creative Health Alliance.
