    Brief

    This national commission aims to evaluate and enhance the Practice Education Facilitator (PEF) role, which supports healthcare professionals regulated by the HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council) who are returning to practice. The project will identify learning and development needs across the return-to-practice pathway, benchmark current practices, and develop evidence-based recommendations to improve consistency, quality, and outcomes of return-to-practice support programs throughout England. Successful delivery will result in standardized guidance and resources that healthcare providers and education bodies can implement to strengthen their return-to-practice offerings and better support career returners.
