New Multiprofessional Educator Learning Library
This learning library has been developed by Clare Cambray (NHSE SW AHP Workforce Fellow) to support NHS & social care staff working across all sectors in meeting their professional & regulatory requirements for delivering high quality education within their workplace. Developing educator skills is a vital step in ensuring that learners at all levels are adequately supervised and receive effective training.
The training opportunities listed in this library are what is currently available and covers a range of self-directed, asynchronous, learning activities of varying duration / commitment. They are broadly appropriate for any health and social care profession to work through as a means of upskilling, developing and cementing skills as a clinical educator / supervisor.
Please note these are generic resources and not intended to replace profession-specific educator training from your educational organisations. There is a ‘formal courses’ section which covers profession-specific and academic / apprenticeship qualifications.
The learning library powerpoint slide deck can be accessed via the South West safe learning environment charter NHS Futures platform here: Multiprofessional Educator Learning Library – South West – Safe Learning Environment Charter – Futures
Please note you will require a NHS Futures Log in to access this resource

Educators are the backbone of healthcare education and training. They guide, support, and shape the future of the healthcare workforce ensuring they can deliver excellent care to patients and communities. NHS educators might work as workplace supervisors, practice educators, clinical supervisors, preceptors, assessors, faculty members and educational supervisors, and can work across diverse settings including general practices and community services.
The Educator Workforce Programme aims to value, develop and support the diverse NHS educator workforce across all professions and employers. NHS England is building cultures where educators have protected time, resources and recognition in workforce planning.
