School of Advanced & Continuing Practice
The School of Advanced and Continuing Practice offers a diverse portfolio of undergraduate and postgraduate level study; short clinical courses and study days for staff working in health care or related practice arenas. These are provided within the undergraduate and postgraduate health care practice framework and the advanced practice framework. These programmes enable students to study both core and practice related modules at their own pace, either taking stand alone modules or as part of an award.
We offer opportunities for nurses wishing to return to practice or for those who have studied and worked abroad; and for qualified practitioners who wish to develop their professional skill and knowledge base. The School also works closely with practice partners and actively engages in collaborative partnerships with voluntary agencies and further education colleges.
Key specialist subject areas include:
Key to the success of these courses is staff expertise, with staff undertaking scholarly external engagement with an array of practice arenas across NW London. Many staff hold honorary contracts with the local trusts and are engaged in practice related research projects as part of their own continuing professional development; impacting positively on the delivery and development of education provision within the School.
We are continually seeking new opportunities to help support and develop the workforce through transformational practice development and welcome invitations to work in partnership with health and independent sectors to create innovative and stimulating practice related programmes to support staff in the workplace to deliver a service of the highest standard and quality.
