ACCP Course Structure Selector (old structure)
Here you can review the course structure for ACCP and register module choices for your chosen course of study.
The structure of the course will enable the non-medical clinicians to undertake a full systems examination (Child and Adult) and to develop the knowledge and skills to clinically and critically interpret results of tests and investigations.
A flexible, modular structure allows you to study over a three years period starting with the PG Certificate in the first year, then progressing to the PG Diploma in the second and then going on to the MSc stage in the third. The MSc will total 180 CATS, you will be taking an additional 60 CATS for stage through a set module diet, 60 for the Certificate stage, 120 for the Diploma, 180 for the MSc.
