AELP Webinar
Facilitator: Christine Edwards QTLS, Creating Excellence
Overview
Supporting learners in achieving success across assessments and EPA requires a thoughtful and strategic approach that goes beyond standard preparation. Effective coaching, individualised readiness techniques and stress management strategies are integral to equipping learners with the skills and confidence they need to excel.
This interactive workshop explores the principles of effective coaching and preparation, combining evidence-based methodologies with practical tools for assessment success. It delves into the nuances of EPA requirements and broader assessment frameworks, identifies common barriers faced by learners and outlines actionable strategies to build resilience, competence and readiness for a range of assessment scenarios.
By designing targeted preparation plans and integrating structured support strategies, educators can enhance learner outcomes, improve organisational pass and completion rates, and ensure alignment with quality standards and expectations.
