Teaching and assessment

Teaching and assessment

Divided into three equal stages, the course consists of taught modules, work-based learning projects and the opportunity to explore a topic of particular interest in some depth. The course will enable you to:

• introduce teaching and learning strategies within clinical settings;
• competently research healthcare issues within their local environment;
• lead and manage healthcare practice;
• implement workplace learning;
• prepare for management of change;
•  implement research advances to enrich evidence-based practice; and
• apply your own learning to projects within the workplace.

To complete the programme, you will be required to produce a paper suitable for publication in an academic journal. You will then write a 10,000-word reflective summary on your learning experience, and attend a viva examination (comprising a 30-minute presentation on one or two of the topics dealt with in the reflective summary and a question-and-answer session lasting 30 to 60 minutes).
