The way we see it, the best clinicians build specialist knowledge on a broad base of knowledge and understanding. So this module is designed to help you achieve exactly that.
One person alone can’t hold the sheer volume of expert knowledge relating to the range of clinical disciplines in healthcare – or keep a handle on its continuous evolution. In acknowledgment of this simple fact, and in recognition that most people will naturally focus on a specific topic or specialism, we’ve designed this module to support you in developing in-depth knowledge and skills for a specific area of practice.
This means you can pin down and specify your preferred specialism, and then undertake agreed research into the knowledge and skills that you’ll need to advance your expertise. Ultimately, to achieve this qualification, you’ll present a portfolio that shows how you’ve achieved your stated objectives.
