National Education and Training Survey: Open 3 November 2020
• The NETS is the only national survey open to all healthcare trainees and students across all clinical learning environments. The survey gathers opinions from students about their time in clinical placements, asking them to provide feedback on what worked well and what they think could be improved.
• The NETS asks 24 questions, relating to six aspects of student experience in the clinical learning environment (Induction, Clinical Supervision, Facilities, Learning, Opportunities and Teamwork) with students able to share free-text comments.

• Universities will be able to access and interrogate survey response data in a bespoke, interactive Microsoft Power BI reporting tool. As students may be undertaking clinical placements during pandemic surges, the NETS Reporting Tool offers an additional insight into the clinical learning environment and the experience of students.
• Further information will be shared with Education Providers throughout October. This will include communication materials to share with students, a walkthrough of the NETS Reporting Tool and a comprehensive FAQs resource. For help with specific queries, please contact the NETS Project team at NETS@hee.nhs.uk.
