Workstream overview
Activity here focused on supporting high-quality placement innovation and growth in learning environments.
This workstream was divided into 4 projects:
- An internal project to develop the onboarding process for Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) seeking CoR programme approval
- A review of clinical current placement hours across our the CoR approved programmes
- The role of simulation in DRAD
- Scoping of standardised assessments being developed across regions in the UK

Please note, some resources will be made available shortly.
1.1 Education and Career Framework
An internal project to develop the onboarding process for Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) seeking CoR programme approval. We have made enhancements to the programme approvals processes. With the aim of reducing the overall approval timeline and administrative burden of accessing documentation following an approval event. Improving transparency and ease of preparing documentation for education providers. The revised process also ensures greater consistency across the approvals process.
1.2 Practice-based Learning Hours
An internal project to review evidence of the minimum number of practice-based learning hours that should be completed by the end of a programme for pre-registration learners completing standard route pre-registration diagnostic radiography and therapeutic radiography programmes in the UK.
1.3 Simulation
This project, awarded to Bradford University, explored the use of simulation to support diagnostic radiography pre-registration education. The aim of the project was to determine the efficacy of simulation.

1.4 Standardised Assessments
The University of Derby in partnership with Keele University were awarded the tender to develop a national standardised clinical assessment tool for pre-registration diagnostic radiography education to ensure a consistent approach to student supervision and assessment.
