What will I learn?

Overview

The MSc Advanced Clinical Practitioner is a higher-level clinical apprenticeship programme designed and developed with local NHS trusts and healthcare providers in line with the Health Education England Multi-Professional Framework for Advanced Clinical Practice. This framework requires healthcare professionals who are working at an advanced level have developed and can evidence the underpinning role/discipline specific competencies and the associated knowledge, skills and behaviours relevant to the clinical setting and advanced practice role.

The programme develops competency across the four pillars of Advanced Clinical Practice:

  • Clinical Practice
  • Leadership and Management
  • Education
  • Research

The work-based learning design of the programme also supports employers and practitioners in the development of locally negotiated competencies. This supports new and developing Advanced Practice roles across all disciplines and areas of clinical practice.

  • The programme is led, taught and supported by a range of advanced practitioners from a variety of clinical backgrounds to ensure the educational approaches utilised in the programme are both clinically current and embedded in clinical practice
