3. How did we get to this point Reviewed the BDA (2008) Curriculum Framework Hosted a number of consultation events in 2010 with placement providers Developed a model and consulted via an on- line survey.

4. How did we get to this point The results of the survey were discussed with Stakeholders in October 2010. Stakeholders advised to develop the new placement structure.

5. Philosophy The learning outcomes and structure of the new placements are based on the stages of the Nutrition and Dietetic Care Process.
