Throughout the course, you will experience a range of creative and challenging learning opportunities in different environments. This will enable you to grow, personally and professionally, within safe and supportive spaces.
Our concept-based approach will allow you to build the complexity of your understanding gradually over the course of your studies. You will be introduced to the key concepts of nursing, which have been structured around the seven platforms of the NMC (2018) standards. It will encourage you to question and think critically, establishing a healthy learning habit that will last throughout your career.
Your learning experience will be enhanced by the use of innovative technology – all lectures will be delivered electronically, so that you can get the most out of your time with staff during seminars, discussion groups and practical sessions. This will also encourage you to develop excellent communication and interpersonal skills, which you can use in your delivery of safe, effective and compassionate care.
In addition, we will use the supported online learning environment to enhance your digital skills within practice, and to help you understand and promote the use of digital technology as a solution within care settings.
Your assessments will be balanced between theory and practice, with essays evenly spaced through the year. Your supervision and assessment on placement will be extremely supportive, based on a model designed in collaboration with our partnership organisations, and will be structured to encourage you to develop the necessary proficiencies at the highest level.
