Exemption from QESP via APEL [Accreditation of Prior Experience and Learning]

APEL applications provide a direct substitute for completing all or part of QESP if prior experience and learning meet the following criteria: a. observation of work-based educational practices in clinical settings followed by feedback; b. observation by an appropriately qualified person (which would include university departments of teacher education, but may not include private training organisations); i.e. by a recognised learning provider; c. appropriate supporting documentation (i.e. a recognised certificate), which includes the equivalent of the Qualified Educational Supervisor Programme observation record and record of professional conversation. 12.
