Individual follow-up:
The individual follow-up of the student is developed in the health institutions with the accompaniment and support of a clinical tutor and a follow-up tutor, both of whom are nursing professionals who look after the improvement and the acquisition of skills by the student during his clinical practice.
The evaluation is carried out jointly taking into account the evolution of the student during the practical period.
Seminars:
During the period of Clinical Practicum III, two face-to-face seminars are held, in synchronous or mixed online format. The seminars are facilitated by the academic tutor, and the group consists of a maximum of 12 students.
Final work:
Students, during their practical stays, do an evaluable written work that they will have to expose during the last seminar.
Objective and Structured Clinical Assessment (ACOE)
The ACOE test is non-refundable.

The evaluation of the seminars is not likely to recover.
In case of suspension of external internships, the grade of the approved parts for recovery will be saved and only the suspended part will be evaluated. It will be used
a system of quantitative qualification (from 0 to 10) and qualitative (suspended, approved, excellent, matriculation of honor) according to the RD 1125/2003.
