Meet the Team

WBLT is made up of a staff team comprising;

  • an administrative team who process all placement related functions and communicate with our students & practice colleagues in organising and managing placement experiences for our students to meet the requirements of individual programmes and regulatory bodies.
  • an information systems and database coordinator who manages the design of systems to facilitate the transfer & recording of information on internal and external systems to ensure compliance with regulatory body & funding body requirements.
  • an academic lead for work-based learning who co-ordinates all quality management, policies and procedures surrounding placement activity and takes a strategic lead in managing placement experiences for our students
  • a Practice Learning Support Team who work to support first year Nursing students in placement in developing the skills necessary to maximise learning in placement settings.

We would always advise that students primarily use the generic contact information given on the Contact Us page as this phone and email account are continually monitored.
