The course aims to promote knowledge of learning and teaching theories in a medical and health context and to facilitate a reflective awareness of the student's own teaching and learning practice, ensuring that the teacher is also a learner.
Students gain an overview of medical education theory and practice in a supportive environment, which helps to develop confidence in teaching. The course has been designed using an interprofessional framework and participants are encouraged to share their teaching experiences and to transcend professional barriers in their learning. |
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
The PGCert course is open to post-registration doctors, nurses, midwives and other health practitioners who contribute to the education of medical students and/or doctors. A first degree is not essential but evidence of ability to study at Masters level and a current teaching commitment are desirable.
