Are you an experienced allied health professional? Do you predominantly have an interest in rehabilitation where your remit crosses boundaries of usual clinical specialities? Do you want to develop your expertise as a clinician but also as an educator, researcher and leader? If so this ACP pathway may be for you. This full-time programme will enhance your clinical knowledge and develop your research skills to enable you to critically reflect on your practice in various areas of rehabilitation, thereby optimising your clinical practice and enhancing service delivery. Additionally, through exploration of links between research, theory, policy and practice, you will become an effective leader, educator and advanced practitioner. If you don’t want to commit to part-time study of the entire master's, you can develop your educational portfolio over a longer period of time by undertaking staged study that leads to the award of Postgraduate Certificate (PgCert) after one year of study, Postgraduate Diploma (PgDip) after two years of study and full Masters (MSc) after three years of study. Each stage can be studied 1 starting in September. You could even just take one or more CPPD modules for your professional development and return to complete your course at a later date.
Getting in
As the university states it
All applicants must have a pre-registration degree in relevant allied health profession and the following of relevant experience as a minimum: 1. Students currently working in the UK - At least 1 year of post qualification clinical work experience in the specialism they have applied for. Typically this should be work experience from a ‘Band 6’ level role. 2. Students currently working outside of the UK – At least 2 years post qualification clinical work experience, ideally including at least 1 year in the specialism you have applied for. All applicants must have met the minimum work experience requirement at the point they apply for the programme. This is to make sure that they will definitely have enough experience when they join the course. This does not include internships as they are supervised and therefore technically still part of their training.
