This article describes the author’s experiences of tutoring on a College of Further Education BTEC [Business and Technology Education Council] course designed to enable qualified nurses to continue their professional education. In particular, it focuses upon the relevance of an individual module on ‘Caring for older people’ for enrolled nurses seeking conversion to registered nurse status. It discusses ways in which students who were keen to extend their knowledge and further their careers in nursing were poorly-served by a system which stood to profit from their fees but which paid little attention to meeting their self-defined most pressing needs.
