Course summary
Course Overview
This programme will help you to develop essential skills to successfully support learning and teaching in contemporary professional contexts. You'll have the opportunity to tailor learning to your individual environment and graduate with a recognised postgraduate qualification that allows for further study or professional recognition.
Whilst studying with us, you'll have opportunities to reflect on and showcase your practice in the workplace. This ‘real life’ aspect of the programme ensures that your studies support your continued professional development in a way that's relevant to your role and professional aspirations.
Why study this subject?
Our PGCert Practice Education provides a valuable qualification for those who have education and/or training responsibilities in the practice setting.
The programme content is focused on learning and teaching in professional environments and is particularly suited to nursing educators, community practice supervisors and assessors. It may also benefit those in adjacent fields, including social work or allied healthcare education.
Why study at Buckinghamshire New University?
This course is outward facing and engages with contemporary issues in practice education. It draws upon the significant experience of our staff at BNU in delivering professional education and working alongside healthcare trusts.
Collaboration plays a big part in the learning and teaching strategy of this course. This way, we can showcase how best to develop professional relationships and give a broader perspective on critical issues.
Professional conversations in the form of supervisory meetings with an appropriately qualified and experienced member of the course team, will also be scheduled throughout the programme. These discussions will provide you with opportunities to tailor your studies to meet your requirements and interests.
How will I be taught and assessed?
You'll attend four full day workshops per module on this course with most activities and course engagement also being available and facilitated online via our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). Both face-to-face workshops and the VLE will be used as a forum for you to develop working relationships with colleagues whilst considering critical issues relevant to learning, teaching and assessment in professional education.
What are my career prospects?
A postgraduate certificate is a recognised qualification that will provide you with opportunities for further study and career development. Once you complete the PGCert Practice Education you might choose to go on to study our MA Education.
You may also use the programme as a framework to support your progression to further leadership roles within your organisation. Formative assessments will help you to build confidence and expertise with support.
