Practice supervisors and assessors of nursing students – are you ePAD ready?

October 26, 2021

Student MEYPAD documents are going digital soon so we must ensure clinical colleagues are ePAD ready?

The ePad is an electronic portfolio containing all practice documentation required for the duration of a student’s journey in practice. The ePAD provides a comprehensive record of the student’s professional development and performance in practice.

The ePAD will also allow practice supervisors/practice assessors and academic assessors the opportunity to securely view, comment on and assess student work. The ePAD system is secure and accessible for the student and their assessors and a valuable tool for the students as they embark on the voyage towards becoming our nurses of the future.

Please ensure you access the videos and resources below regarding ePAD:

• BCU ePAD training resources
• University of Wolverhampton training resources
