Since then, Alison's role has expanded into curriculum development and has led the design, development and implementation of a range of new health and non-health related courses, facilitating cross-faculty working and relationship building with new placement providers.

She also has strategic oversight of placement capacity expansion activity, apprenticeships, development of digital and simulated learning experiences, and embedding service user and carer involvement across all curricula. In chairing the Faculty Learning and Teaching Committee, she has commissioned a number of cross-disciplinary quality enhancement projects to improve our staff and student experience.
