Francesca was expected to juggle many different jobs as an educator, including keeping up-to-date with her own learning. Tell us what support would help you as a #ClinicalEducator: https://t.co/ED0QDLXZqW. Due to popular demand, we've extended the deadline until Tuesday 22 May.

Taking the opportunity to be vulnerable here - sharing what I wish I had known when I started a clinical educator role. I’m inspired by the power of vulnerability to learn & create change within groups. Tell us what you wish you’d known when starting an educator role!

Starting in a #ClinicalEducator role requires a completely new set of skills. We want to know what training and development would have made your transition to an educator role easier. Tell us what you think: https://t.co/ED0QDLXZqW

I definitely began to hone my diplomatic skills as a clinical educator...what other skills have you found you need as an educator that aren't necessarily focused on teaching? Please complete the survey below if you would be willing to share your experience! ⬇️

Many #ClinicalEducators expect to focus on teaching, but instead need a range of other skills that can feel overwhelming, without support and training. If you’re a Clinical Educator, what were some of the invisible skills you needed support with? https://t.co/ED0QDLXZqW

Like Lydia, many #ClinicalEducators tell us they were surprised by how much of their job wasn’t related to teaching. Having training and support for some of these skills would have made things easier. What training would have benefitted you? https://t.co/ED0QDLXZqW

Teaching isn’t always the hardest part of becoming a #ClinicalEducator. The invisible workload and lack of training can leave staff feeling frustrated and alone. If you’re a Clinical Educator, please take 5 minutes and let us know what support would help: https://t.co/ED0QDLXZqW
