Diagnostic Imaging Practice Education

A community of practice educators in imaging, facilitating support and professional development

This group aims to provide a community for educators within Diagnostic Medical Imaging. Facilitating support, professional development and providing a forum to meet and exchange ideas and information, and share learning.

Imaging PE roles are somewhat new in many trusts, and there is a need for support of the role and to collaborate and to learn from the experience of each other. By developing and advancing our educational support to the trusts, we will in turn be supporting the NHS in the advancement and retention of the workforce. 

This SIG will provide opportunities for PEs to develop their practice to provide enhanced education to the Imaging workforce. This would allow also to further investigate and research the role, and how it best supports the Imaging workforce and what methods have been proven for best practice in education. 

This aligns with the objectives of the SoR- especially those to promote study and publish the results of such study. This group will aid further protection of the honour and interests of persons engaged in practice, as PEs are there to support and develop the radiological professions.

Main goals:

  • To provide a community of those who educate within medical imaging to share and develop best practice
  • To be a safe space to facilitate support, and a forum to meet and exchange ideas and information
  • To share learning and guide professional development amongst the members and the learners they support
