Urgent Communication - Withdrawal of the Practice Educator & Assessor Preparation Programme (PEAP) from eLfH

The NHSE TEC team announced this week that the Practice Educator and Assessor Preparation (PEAP) Programme from the e-Learning for Health Platform will be officially withdrawn imminently. You may have already seen separate communications this week – the withdrawal date has now been briefly extended, with a formal date to be confirmed – however the new withdrawal date may still be within the next week.

We understand some participants may not have previously downloaded their training certificates as proof of course completion. Please share this information with your teams/partners and encourage individuals to download their certificates as soon as possible, we recognise that this is very short notice.

The issue has been widely escalated within NHSE, we will keep you updated with any further developments and establish whether there will be a later opportunity for participants to retrieve certificates, and also what alternative training will be available to replace this going forward.

For supervisor and assessor support within your practices, or any advice or queries relating to this, please don’t hesitate to contact debra.smith8@nhs.net who is happy to support.

We will keep you informed when any new information becomes available regarding the withdrawal of PEAP. Many thanks for your help in sharing this information.
