Practice Educator
The first role paramedics take on when moving into education is often that of a practice educator. This role is crucial for the development of both pre-registered and postgraduate students. As a role model, coach, teacher, and assessor, the practice educator has a significant impact on the future practice of students. Their approach to clinical practice and education shapes how students apply their learning and develop in their careers. Paramedic students rely on the support, guidance, and professionalism of the practice educator to integrate their learning into real-world practice.
