Health Professions Education stand-alone modules

Source: https://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/subjects/medicine/stand-alone-modules/ Parent: https://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/study/

We offer a range of stand-alone online modules in health professions education, each accredited at SCQF Level 11. These part-time, 15-credit modules run from September to December and are delivered entirely online. They include approximately two hours of synchronous online teaching every fortnight, supplemented by self-study.

These modules allow you to explore specialist topics within health professions education and can also serve as an introduction or return to academic study at this postgraduate level.

The stand-alone modules also form part of a full Health Professions Education online programme which cultivates teaching practice that instils the principles and values of interprofessional education to support the development of the future and current healthcare work force. The Health Professions Education programme can be studied at PGCert, PGDip and MSc level. Find out more.
