ePad

At Anglia Ruskin University, we've successfully implemented Myprogress since 2015 within our nursing courses. Designed in alignment with the 2018 NMC standards, MyProgress supports the electronic practice assessment document (ePAD) and electronic midwife ongoing record of achievement (eMORA).

We are now developing ePAD for all our healthcare courses.

The ePAD is an online platform which will enable students to gain valuable feedback and sign-off in practice, electronically, and record their practice hours. The ePAD is predominantly accessed online via a website, accompanied by iOS and android mobile apps, enabling students to complete documentation and record practice hours online, or offline on a mobile device.

Key benefits

The ePADs will offer a number of significant benefits to our students, staff and placement providers, including:

• reduce admin burden on staff and reduce variations in practice learning
• students empowered with ownership and sight of their own data
• standardisation of tools and processes
• statutory compliance
• digital workplace-based assessment available anytime, anywhere and with a user-friendly interface (mobile app)
• student progress tracked in real time
• student experience improved through 'in the moment' feedback
• practice staff have information at their fingertips helping them to rapidly visualise and track progress
• easy access for Practice Supervisors - no equipment or logins required
• ability to provide a mix of in-person and remote support through one digital platform
• encourages practice reflection by students
• data secure and compliant
• powerful data and analytics improve timely feedback and intervention.
