Live webinars and podcasts from leading experts in the field, individual coaching, engaging interactive learning and closed discussion group will ensure maximum engagement and give you an opportunity to explore the learner journey in detail. Teaching and learning activities will also encourage independent research and exploration of the subject in order to enhance your skills as an educator.

The course will enhance your skills in:

• Inter-professional working, networking, and learning
• Delivering education in a digital age
• Written and verbal communication

As well as giving you an insight into the essential skills for postgraduate-level study, including digital learning, IT skills, literature searching, assignment planning, academic writing, critical reading, and group working.

The course is unique in its focus on supporting non-medical and medical clinical educators to exploit and facilitate every teaching opportunity to its fullest potential. It will provide a real time focus on the generational span and the increased requirements to support increased wellness, emotional labour, and inclusion. A further distinctive feature is the interprofessional and interdisciplinary nature of the course which draws on expertise from a range of clinical professions and diverse teaching experience in clinical and non-clinical workplaces.

What's covered in this course?

The course philosophy is built on several key principles:

• We will cultivate brave and innovative leaders who are willing to pioneer original approaches and drive positive change in healthcare education. Our aim is to empower educators to provide tailored support to both staff and students, equipping them with the skills and knowledge needed to excel as practitioners.
• As healthcare settings undergo rapid transformation, we will equip our educators with the tools to navigate these changes effectively. This includes managing student expectations, leveraging technology to enhance learning experiences, and addressing staffing challenges.
• We have a deep understanding of how individuals learn and the theories that underpin effective education. We recognise the importance of theory in guiding our pedagogical practices and maximising every learning opportunity within different healthcare environments.
• We will instil in our educators a commitment to evidence-based practice, emphasising the importance of critically evaluating evidence and questioning established practices to ensure optimal learning outcomes.
• We will encourage educators to challenge norms and historical methods of teaching and learning. This includes promoting interprofessional learning, addressing hierarchical structures, and embracing innovative roles such as Advanced Nurse Practitioners (ANPs) and Student Nursing Associates (SNAs).
• We recognise the continual evolution of learning environments and healthcare landscapes and emphasise the importance of flexibility and adaptability in our educators. We will equip them to respond effectively to emerging challenges and opportunities.
