Programme

Postgraduate Certificate, Postgraduate Diploma and Master in Health Professions Education

The Postgraduate Programmes in Health Professions Education offer a progressive learning pathway across postgraduate certificate, postgraduate diploma, and master’s levels. The Postgraduate Certificate provides a strong foundation in teaching, learning, and assessment for healthcare professionals beginning or formalising their roles as educators, with a clear emphasis on workplace-based practice. Building on this, the Postgraduate Diploma develops more advanced competencies in curriculum design, and leadership in educational practice, preparing educators for greater responsibilities in programme development and academic roles. The Master in Health Professions Education is designed for those seeking advanced expertise positions, integrating educational theory and research in a supervised research project that supports scholarly contribution and innovation in health professions education.
