About the course
The Health Professional Education (HPE) suites of courses are designed for health professionals who teach in the clinical environment. They cover all aspects of teaching and learning, from planning curricula to assessment methods, with a particular focus on how students learn. The programmes are accredited by the Higher Education Academy (HEA).
This suite of three year-long part-time programmes is for all health professionals involved in the education and training of undergraduates and postgraduates. Each year is self-contained and a qualification is obtained after each year: Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PG Cert) in year one, Postgraduate Diploma (PG Dip) in year two; and, Masters (MEd) in year three.
