Specific entry requirements

To be qualified to a higher semester, it is required that the student has taken at least 15 credits from last semester.

Students who have failed the placement (VFU) or the equivalent as a consequence of demonstrating deficiencies in knowledge, skills or attitude so serious that the patient's safety or confidence in healthcare have been at risk is qualified for new placement only when the individual action plan has been completed.

Examination

Assessment of the students' learning and achievement takes place continuously during the course.

The course is examined through an individual written assignment and practical tests and approved clinical education.

The examiner may with immediate effect interrupt a student's placement (VFU), or the equivalent, if the student demonstrates such serious deficiencies in knowledge, skills or attitudes that patient safety or patient confidence in healthcare is at risk. When a placement is interrupted like this, it implies that the student fails in the current part, and that a placement opportunity is used.

In such cases, an individual action plan should be set up showing which activities and examinations are required, before the student is given the possibility of a new placement in this course.

Transitional provisions

The student may be examined under a previous syllabus within a year after the date when a close-down or major changes of the course was decided.

Other directives

Course evaluation is carried out orally and in writing, the compilation is announced both to students and representatives of concerned units.
