On this Adult Nursing BN Dispersed Learning programme you'll have compulsory theoretical study and placements in hospitals, community and/or residential settings within Powys. Placement opportunities provide excellent practice-based learning experiences across Powys for programme students. These supervised placements enable you to observe professionals at work, observe high quality team working, and enable participation in the delivery of nursing care in a supported way, while developing your confidence and skills in many areas of nursing practice.

You will receive excellent support from a personal tutor who is a registered nurse and an academic member of staff. For this programme a weekly face to face contact for support during theory blocks will be offered in a location within the Powys area to suit you, allowing multiple aspects of theoretical and clinical learning to be discussed and supported in person.
During placements you will be supervised and assessed by practicing, experienced registered nurses and other professionals. Theoretical and practical work is assessed through assignments, examinations, presentations, and the All-Wales Assessment of Clinical Practice portfolio.
