Course summary
The course will enable you to practice safely and effectively, providing care for women and babies, and upon successful graduation, register as a midwife with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). Midwives are autonomous practitioners who offer specialist support to mothers from the antenatal to postnatal period, working with a range of healthcare professionals to promote the best interests of both mother and baby. This course is designed to encourage critical thinking and the application of evidence to underpin clinical practice, providing a wide base of knowledge aligned to national policy and meeting the NMC's education requirements for the future midwife. It will enable you to use an evidence-based approach confidently to support decision-making in complex mental, physical, cognitive, and behavioural situations. Inter-professional learning opportunities are embedded throughout the programme, allowing you to learn alongside different professions, expand your knowledge, and develop your ability to work across teams-an essential skill for safe and compassionate midwifery. This programme gives registered adult nurses with at least six months’ experience the opportunity to train as a midwife, building on their existing skills and experience. We are one of a small number of institutions working with Health Education England (HEE) to offer this programme, and HEE may provide funding for the course.
