Abstract
Introduction/background:
Professional placements are a critical component of health professional programs that facilitate students to develop skills for practice. Students are supervised in placements by practitioners who require access to quality training to develop skills as workplace educators and to ensure positive learning experiences for students. Whilst universities frequently offer clinical education training, little research exists about the learning objectives or outcomes of this training, or how clinicians apply this knowledge with students.

| Other | Australian and New Zealand Association for Health Professional Educators (ANZAHPE) Annual Conference is organized by Australian and New Zealand Association for Health Professional Educators (ANZAHPE) and would be held during Jul 11 - 14, 2017 at Adelaide Convention Centre, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia. Overview : This Course focuses on transitions; from the educational impact of large scale transitions in society, health care and culture, to the focused personal transitions that underpin learning and professional identity formation, to leading planned transitions in educational practice. Exploring transitions requires we engage in reflection, scholarship and research, connecting theory and evidence with educational practice. It requires we connect the academy with clinical service and the broader societal expectations of our professions. The 2017 ANZAHPE conference with its theme of transitions is relevant to all health professionals involved in education across the continuum from pre-qualification to continuing professional education. In being about responding, changing, innovating and learning the theme of transitions puts its finger on the pulse of health professional education. We invite you to participate in a multi-professional conference sure to be alive with big ideas, thorny dilemmas, engaging debates and new vistas. |
