Summary
To prepare Allied Health Professionals, Nurses, Midwives and Pharmacists to practice as Advanced Clinical Practitioners as defined by Health Education England (2017).
Our dedicated advanced clinical practice academic team are all clinical ACPs as well as academics and as such we are able to ensure clinical currency in the way our modules are delivered.
The MSc Advanced Clinical Practice course at the University of Chester is accredited with NHS England. This means that on completion of the course our students will be eligible to receive a digital badge as recognition of their learning and professional development. Our programme has been reviewed and redesigned in conjunction with current students, advanced clinical practitioners (ACPs), clinical practice leads and service users, which has enabled us to create a programme that is contemporary and fit for purpose.
Our team are all ACPs and educators. 80% of the programme team still work clinically in ACP roles, bringing up-to-date clinical experience to the sessions, modules and programme that we deliver. We also have a dedicated service user team, who provide teaching and assessment.
