The recently established Institute of Health and Social Care is the largest school in London South Bank University with a long-standing reputation for excellence in the education, research and practice development of a variety of health and social care specialists.
The Division of Midwifery is seeking to appoint an external examiner for our Postgraduate Diploma in Midwifery with NMC registration due to start in January 2022 and to oversee the last six months of our existing B.Sc (Hons) Midwifery 90 week shortened programme. The University operates a two-tier examination board system, with external examiners being initially appointed to a Subject Area Board where they will oversee a number of academic modules. More experienced external examiners may subsequently be appointed to an Award and Progression Examination Board. The Examination Board meets three times a year and there is an expectation that the external examiner will attend at least one Examination Board and submit an annual report to the University.
Applications are invited from suitably qualified academic staff that are registered midwives and hold a minimum of a Masters. All appointments are subject to the candidate meeting the University’s criteria for appointment (UK Quality Code for HE; Chapter 7 External Examining; Indicator 5).
Please apply by 6 October 2021 with a CV detailing any external examining, midwifery education and practice experience to:
