Overview

The Medical Education programme from The University of Lancashire is delivered via the University’s eLearn system, which means you can prepare work ahead of the online teaching sessions and undertake additional work independently from home.

Our programme equips healthcare professionals with the knowledge and skills to build on their current educator experiences and explicitly enables use of these experiences within module assessments.

Key facts

On completion, you will be well placed to influence the role and the research of medical education in patient care at a local, regional and national level.
The PGCert offers a foundation in critical aspects of medical education: professionalism (and the teaching of it), educational theory and assessment practices. The assignments for each module are designed to enable students to reflect on their own practice and research topics in a targeted way. Therefore, you will be able to explore aspects of the subject area that are relevant to your own practice.
Within the PGDip and MSc there are opportunities to tailor your learning further, enabling an extended exploration into the topic areas relevant to your own career and practice.

Accreditation

The centre is accredited by the Royal College of Surgeons, a professional membership organisation and registered charity which exists to advance patient care.
