Making the transition from researcher or clinician to educator can be challenging, requiring us to reconsider our professional identities. This course aims to support educators to consider the multiple roles they may be expected to perform, focussing on three elements: what makes a 'good' teacher; the practicalities of designing, delivering and assessing education; and the multifaceted professional identity of the teacher. By the end of the course, you should have developed a sound understanding of what it means to be a health-professions' educator in the 21st century and begun to consider how you manage your professional development as an educator.

This is a 6-week facilitated course with the opportunity to join weekly sessions where you can engage with like-minded professionals and experienced colleagues to share your understanding of the key concepts as well as furthering your knowledge. In addition, you’ll have access to our online learning platform and a range of resources especially designed to support directed self-learning. You should expect to spend around 8-10 hours per week engaging with the learning materials plus a further 10-20 hours preparing your assignment.

The next facilitated course will run from 3rd March – 11th April 2024, with submission of the final assignment by May 9th. Register by February 28th to secure your place.
