Transcript The Philosophy behind the new placements

How did we get to this point
 Reviewed the BDA (2008) Curriculum
Framework
 Hosted a number of consultation events in
2010 with placement providers
 Developed a model and consulted via an on-
line survey.
How did we get to this point
 The results of the survey were discussed
with Stakeholders in October 2010.
 Stakeholders advised to develop the new
placement structure.
Philosophy
 The learning outcomes and structure of the
new placements are based on the stages of
the Nutrition and Dietetic Care Process.

competence based assessments.

portfolio of evidence to show their
performance against the learning outcomes.

Placements
 The learning outcomes have been
rationalised so that there are fewer, they are
more relevant and assessment as a result will
be easier.
