'My Learner Journey'

Learning resources for professionals and university students

Developed by academics and clinical specialists

We support UK-wide healthcare education and practice teams through the SN@P CPD Hub, providing field and route-specific learning modules. The CPD Hub enables students and staff to evidence competency for academic programmes and NMC revalidation.


All of these modules have been accredited by the Royal College Of Nursing (RCN).

Module 1: Drug Calculation Overview

Refresh existing skills across the broad spectrum of drug calculations and gain insight into common mistakes made when calculating drug doses

Module 2: Abbreviations, Units and Unit Conversions

Gain up-to-date knowledge of unit conversion and abbreviations used when dealing with medicines and medicine administration

Module 3: Calculating Dosage

Refresh day to day skills required when calculating doses. Update your skills on methodologies involved in calculating drug dosages and key numeracy skills required.

Module 4: Administering the Correct Dose

Gain a thorough understanding of the steps involved to calculate the correct dose and gain insight into the impact of calculating drug doses on patient safety

Module 5: Infusion Calculations

Refresh skills required to set up and administer intravenous medicine. Develop knowledge surrounding the various types of IV administration, including drip rate, infusion, injection

Module 6: Multiple Step Calculations

Gain insight into medication requiring multiple step calculations. Refresh knowledge of checks required to ensure each step has been accurately calculated

Module 7: Liquid Dose Calculations

Develop knowledge around common mistakes made when administering liquid doses. Refresh skills on various routes to administer liquid doses.

Module 8: Paediatric Dosing Oral Medication

Develop knowledge around key differences when calculating paediatric drug doses. Update knowledge on specific numeracy methodologies required when calculating child doses

Module 9: Drip Rate Calculations

Working out drip rate calculations by minute and by hour can present a high margin for error. Working through our Drip Rate Calculation module will help you to identify the different numerical skills needed when calculating drip per minute and drip per hour.

Module 10: Fluid Balance

One of the most fundamental aspects of human physiology is fluid balance. This homeostatic equilibrium underpins cellular function, thermoregulation, and the transport of nutrients and waste. Disruption can lead to dehydration, overload, or life-threatening electrolyte imbalances.

Learner View

Snap has allowed us to save time on producing assessments on clinical numeracy, while still allowing the flexibility to add as many custom questions as we need. As such, our provision of medicines management assessment has become more comprehensive, with more formative assessment provided, and ultimately improved clinical competency for our students. The system is easy to navigate for admin users, and the support provided is very impressive. The team are always open to suggestions to change functionality or better suit our institution's needs. They are all very approachable and responsive to long-term planning.

King's have been using SN@P as a numeracy assessment tool for new nurses and midwives for a few years. It forms an integral part of our local drug assessment programme, ensuring our staff have the right skills and helping keep our patients safe. It is also a useful development and refresher tool for staff who need some extra support. The system is easy to navigate, adaptable to our changing needs and there's always someone on hand to help with any queries.

About Us

At SN@P Assessment & Education, we bridge the gap between academic learning and clinical practice by providing specialised, sector-tailored numeracy solutions. Originally commissioned by NHS Health Education England, our dual-operating platform pairs robust diagnostic testing with targeted learning resources. Hosted by the Health & Education Co-operative - a partnership governed by five leading universities in the North West of England - SN@P works directly with UK higher education institutions, NHS Trusts, and healthcare providers. We ensure that nursing and midwifery undergraduates, postgraduates, and healthcare professionals build the numerical confidence and precision required for safe medicines management and everyday clinical practice.

Our mission is to safeguard patient care by assuring clinical competency at every stage of the healthcare career path. From supporting pre-entry skill development to delivering RCN-accredited continuing professional development (CPD) modules, SN@P offers a flexible, online environment where users can master essential dosage calculations and revalidation requirements. By delivering tailored assessments, instant progress tracking, and remote invigilation capabilities, we save institutions valuable administrative time while empowering thousands of healthcare professionals across the UK to practice with accuracy and peace of mind.
