The School of Health Sciences is looking to recruit a new External Examiner for the 2024/25 academic year to support the Advanced Vascular Access and IV Therapy 15 credit module, endorsed by the National Infusion and Vascular Access Society (NIVAS). The School of Health Sciences at the University of Surrey is a vibrant and innovative school, offering a broad range of educational programmes in healthcare.
External examiners are required to review and evaluate assessment marking; be a member of the Board of Examiners and attend 1-2 meetings per year, (these are likely to remain virtually online for the foreseeable future); comment and give advice on programme content, balance and structure; and to complete an annual report as part of the University of Surreys quality assurance mechanisms. The University requires external examiners to attend a minimum of one Board of Examiners meeting per year.
Experience of external examining would be an advantage but is not essential, as for this module we are particularly looking for specialist clinical expertise.
All appointments are subject to meeting the University’s criteria for the appointment of external examiners. The successful applicant would be appointed with effect from 2024/25 for a term of four academic years.
Informal enquiries can be made to Hayley Ward, Director of Studies. Interested applicants are required to apply by submission of Curriculum Vitae and covering email to: h.ward@surrey.ac.uk
Initial deadline for submission is: Monday 21 October 2024, however this advert will remain open until a suitable candidate is appointed.
