Assessment and entry considerations

Assessment: Observed role-specific tasks in an authorised workplace or approved simulation, knowledge checks and review of a supervised hearing assessment support portfolio. Actual workplace evidence is required where the eventual award or role specifies it.

Entry and recognition: Initial literacy, numeracy and role-suitability assessment; access to approved clinical supervision and placement. Existing registration or delegated authority is required for restricted procedures and professional development routes.

Practice boundaries: Clinical procedures require an appropriately authorised learner, an approved clinical setting, qualified supervision and employer competency sign-off. This support/development programme does not qualify a registered nurse or confer independent clinical practice rights. Pharmacy, dental, radiographic and diagnostic activities additionally require the applicable professional permissions.

Credential status: Proposed BEMCON programme only. No registered award, framework level, credit value or external certification is assigned.

Duration basis: Original curriculum-planning estimate, not an official prescribed qualification duration. The approved qualification specification, entry assessment and mandatory placement requirements take precedence.
