The Clinical Teaching Associate session is offered to all learners who are undertaking the face-to-face Cervical Screening course. It is strongly recommended that novice cervical screening providers do this session to develop their speculum technique as well as hone their communication skills in a live simulated environment.

This course provides an education pathway for healthcare professionals new to cervical screening.

The course is comprised of three components:

1. Theory

Approximately 6 hours of online, self-paced pre-reading completed within 6 weeks of attending the face-to-face course

2. Workshop

1-day face-to-face workshop which includes simulated clinical practice on pelvic models, history taking and communication techniques, case study discussions, cervical cancer and HPV presentation. There is also an assessment at the end of the workshop (online, open book, multiple-choice assessment). Participants also have the option of attending a session with our clinical teaching associates. This optional session with clinical teaching associates is not compulsory but is highly recommended.

3. Workplace clinical attachment

Follows successful completion of online modules and workshop components
Clinical portfolio is provided to record training
A minimum of 7 supervised cervical screens with a preceptor are required, ensuring competency requirements are met
Clinical attachment is to be completed and portfolio submitted within 6 months
You can undertake your clinical attachment at True clinic (Brisbane). Availability of this option is limited and may not be available at all times.
