Course content

Earn while you learn with our Advanced Clinical Practitioner Apprenticeship, which leads to a master's degree over three years.

Advanced Clinical Practice is about working in partnership with individuals, families and carers with and within multi-disciplinary teams. This postgraduate Advanced Clinical Practitioner Apprenticeship enables you to develop your knowledge, skills and confidence to manage complex cases autonomously within specific areas of practice.

The course is aimed at practitioners holding registration with a professional body and will lead to a master's degree (MSc) over three years of part-time study at university and in the workplace. It encompasses the four pillars of clinical practice, leadership and management, education and research with demonstration of core capabilities, and field-specific clinical competence.

Among the benefits are the ability to earn as you learn, and access to state-of the-art simulation facilities and an extensive network of health and social care partners.
