Clinical Educators
A peer group supports clinical educators in maternity services to plan and deliver maternity-specific education for clinical staff. The network fosters collaboration and knowledge-sharing, enabling educators to exchange best practices, address challenges, and strengthen workforce skills to improve care for women and newborns.
Who is it for?
Midwifery educators interested in networking about the challenges & strategies for embedding new policies and research into practice and therefore ensuring patient and staff safety.
Members share their interests, priorities, and challenges through meaningful dialogue, actively shaping the direction and impact of this Network.
