In December 2024 the university published an updated version of the Fitness to Practise Procedure.
There were a number of significant changes from the previous version of this policy, version number 1.0. These were:
a. Procedure template updated to new more concise and accessible version, and new short summary created to sit alongside the full Procedure.
b. Enhancements in response to a Student Consultation conducted through January and February 2024.
c. New Appendix 7 added for R86 BSc Hons in Counselling which will accept practice students from October 2025.
d. All references to Conditions of Registration for Degree Holder Entry Programme (DHEP) updated to Conditions of Registration for Policing Programmes to reflect recent updates to the Policing Programme including the new Police Constable Entry Programme (PCEP) qualification.
e. References added for Nursing to refer to Independent Route Hosts instead of employers where applicable, given the new Independent Route provision for Nursing.
