Applicants should hold an honours degree in a discipline relating to their proposed area of study. However, candidates with other relevant qualifications will be considered.
Applicants must normally be able to demonstrate a minimum of 2 years recent and relevant experience in an appropriate setting. The applied nature of the course and the emphasis on critical reflection and the development of advanced practice require candidates to have relevant experience on which they can reflect and develop their studies.
The programme is closely aligned to professional standards and competencies, including the Professional Framework for Enhanced, Advanced and Consultant clinical practice in Wales (HEIW 2023), and relevant professional development frameworks from clinical specialisms and professional associations.
Our module assessments directly relate to future employment or work-related tasks, or more generally to the advancement of the subject and profession, and your own aspirations. This will enable you to develop and demonstrate the application of your knowledge and skills to real-world professional situations.
By studying this programme, you will be able to lead and contribute to developments in your profession and organisation through a more pro-active, critical and reflective approach: acting as an agent of change, a leader and advocate of your profession and for high quality healthcare.
