This route is a standalone option for those who may not be in a position to commit to a MSc and three years of study.

This programme is for all health professionals and clinical educators who want to expand their understanding of pedagogy and be able to apply educational theory to clinical education to provide high satisfaction in those they teach. Our goal is to encourage a culture for training of healthcare professionals by the development of a network of educators committed to improving the future of healthcare education.
We support our students and graduates to deliver novel, transformational approaches to improve the quality of their teaching. By studying on this programme, you will be equipped to promote excellence in learning and teaching for health professionals. The programme will help you to assess where current gaps lie in the delivery of clinical education, and you will be supported in providing innovative educational solutions to address unmet clinical learning needs that will improve outcomes.
The course content is highly practical and aims to model best practice in learning and teaching, drawing upon a wide range of flexible on-line approaches to learner support and development.
By developing a network of experienced clinical educators, our programme aims to encourage a culture for training of healthcare professionals, and demonstrate alignment of teaching and learning practice with UK Professional Standards and professional values.
