So just what is this VLE we keep talking about?!

The VLE (Virtual Learning Environment) holds a wealth of information for all CAW students, mentors and clinical coaches. This article will concentrate on the benefits of the VLE for our Level 3 Diploma Veterinary Nursing courses.

Once you are a student veterinary nurse with CAW or an active CAW clinical coach you will be given log in details to the VLE. These log in details will be sent to CAW Clinical Coaches at the same time as the NPL log in details from Ruth Franklin.

The VLE supplies an electronic version of:

  • CAW policy documents
  • Student Handbooks
  • Awarding body qualification handbooks
  • Assignment guidance
  • Reflective training Log (RTL) information
  • Funding information
  • Basic Skills guidance
  • Exam schedules
  • Schemes of work
  • Campus information

It also provides career information/guidance and help in finding work and a jobs board, plus an e-library and revision aids e.g. step by step guide to OSCEs!

If you experience difficultly logging into the VLE please contact Ruth Franklin on 01480 422060.

We always welcome suggestions on how to improve the VLE and the content you would like to see on this resource so please do contact your QAS if you have any comments or suggestions.

So what are you waiting for?! A whole world of information is at your fingertips, give it a try today!
