Welcome

Welcome to this on-line web based training package designed as a companion to the Student Practice Evaluation Form (SPEF)-Revised Edition Package^©.

This site is designed for professional practice educators using the SPEF-R^© to evaluate students in occupational therapy professional practice placements. The site has primarily been developed with the needs of occupational therapy practice educators in mind and has a strong emphasis on practical application responding to the key question - "What do I have to know to use the SPEF-R^© effectively?" Completing this on line training package will provide you with the information you need to use the tools with confidence, not only during times of formal evaluation, but also as a useful adjunct to practice placement planning and ongoing student communication.

Consequently the training package is organised into three modules containing critical information and actions needed at different times throughout students' practice placements.

• Module One: Before the student arrives
• Module Two: When the student arrives
• Module Three: At Halfway and Final Evaluation

We hope that you find it informative, dynamic and most of all, easy to apply in your workplace.
