Role of the LME
LMEs are based at and employed by the educational institutes providing pre-registration midwifery education. They are experienced practising midwife teachers leading on development, delivery and management of midwifery education programmes.

LMEs play a key role in informing the NMC on whether student midwives are of good character, health and are competent to undertake the role of a midwife at the end of their training.

LMEs are part of the NMC quality assurance process for ensuring high standards in midwifery education programmes.
