This course, offered by the Centre for Medical and Health Sciences Education, enables teachers from the health professions to develop their teaching and supervision skills, course development techniques and expand their working knowledge of educational theory to underpin future practice. Participants will be expected to explore and evaluate the impact of new educational methods (including assessment and evaluation methods) and legislation on the provision of high-quality education in the health environment. They will be introduced to the design and implementation of effective educational research.
Applicants should be actively engaged in health professional education (eg in medicine, nursing, dietetics, radiography, psychology, social work, pharmacy, and paramedical studies). They should be graduates of a three-year undergraduate bachelor degree or diploma or be able to demonstrate equivalent substantial professional experience.
The course consists of four core six-credit-point units, which will normally be completed over a period of one year (two semesters). The course is offered flexibly with some on-campus study days utilising a combination of learning and multimode teaching methods. Students must complete the following core units.
Assessment includes written assignments, teaching practicals and preparation of a structured teaching portfolio.
