Advanced Clinical Practice - Postgraduate Certificate

The PG Cert in Advanced Clinical Practice is designed to expand existing professional knowledge and to produce high quality evidence based practitioners who are better positioned to develop their individual disciplines as well as the wider health agenda. The programme will offer participants the opportunity to critically examine and reflect on their own practice and to implement mechanisms of change to enhance current practice.

This is a programme individually tailored to your professional needs. Rather than a prescribed course of study, you complete a core module on evidence-based practice or research methods, and we then work to identify other modules that suit you needs, ranging from project management, lean thinking and leadership to intercultural care and applied psychology, with many other options in between. The Independent Learning Module provides the option for you to put forward a specialist topic and receive one-to-one supervision to research that. The output you produce from this module can be tailored to your requirements: e.g. a clinical guideline, an evidence summary, a mini dissertation or a suite of resources, amongst other things. This programme can then lead into the Master of Science in Advanced Healthcare Practice, which follows the same practitioner-focused course design.
