Medical Education
Do you remember being a student with a thirst for knowledge? Remember the tutor who inspired you, and gave you the confidence and drive to succeed? What if you could be that tutor for the doctors of tomorrow?
Doctors and clinicians are frequently involved in training other healthcare personnel. At WMS, we've designed a range of courses to equip medical personnel with the required skills and knowledge for training the next generation of doctors. Successful completion of the module ‘Essentials of Clinical Education’ entitles participants to recognition as an Associate of the Higher Education Academy, while successful completion of a PG Certificate entitles participants to recognition as a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
We recommend that students start with the Essentials of Clinical Education module, and then progress to further modules or to the full programme to earn a PG Certificate, PG Diploma or MMedEd qualification.
