The NQP Program Module is a comprehensive digital solution designed to support newly qualified paramedics (NQPs) through their two-year consolidation of learning period. Consisting of two fully interconnected apps, the module provides an intuitive and structured approach to professional development while enabling mentors to track progress effectively.
NQP App
The NQP App serves as a roadmap for NQPs, guiding them through their learning journey in six-month segments. Each phase includes:
- Progress Checks to assess development.
- Evidence Uploads to document learning.
- Learning Outcomes (LOs) aligned with the National NQP consolidation of learning portfolio.
- Audit Function for saving and downloading records for compliance and review.
By following this structured process, NQPs can systematically build their skills and demonstrate competency over time.

The Mentor App provides a streamlined way for mentors to track and review the progress of assigned NQPs. Key features include:
- Access to NQP evidence submissions and selected learning outcomes (LOs).
- Visibility into NQP reflections and progress checks.
- A centralised platform for feedback and support.
With this dual-app system, both NQPs and mentors benefit from a clear, organised, and efficient learning process, ensuring a seamless transition from qualification to confident practice.
