Access the Model

Welcome to the Career and Development Model for Nursing and Midwifery which is designed to support professional development and practice.

The Career and Development Model offers a structure with key knowledge, skills and behaviours to inform career, learning and workforce development.

It can help to benchmark knowledge and skills and support professional development at every level across a career journey.

It can also be used by practitioners, managers, educators and commissioners to support the development of a suitably skilled and resourced workforce.

It focuses on the essential knowledge, skills and behaviors needed to underpin good practice at all levels of the workforce, supporting safe and effective care delivery.

It recognises how complex roles have become and helps to explain the difference in expectations and learning for all levels of practice across the nursing and midwifery workforce.
