MSc Advanced Professional Practice (Part time)

Our MSc Advanced Professional Practice programme reflects national and international benchmarks for advanced level professional practice for the healthcare workforce, while supporting you to build a personalised qualification around your own advancing professional practice role. In addition to core modules, you'll choose from a wide range of optional modules, allowing you to tailor the programme to the context of your career. This programme is accredited by NHS England’s Centre for Advancing Practice and is therefore closely aligned to the NHS England Multi-Professional Framework for Advanced Clinical Practice in England (HEE, 2017) and underpinned by the four pillars of advanced practice.

Flexible learning is key to this programme. The course can be completed almost entirely online, with just a few key modules requiring attendance on campus. Most modules are available as Continuing Professional Development (CPD) standalone modules.

Please visit our CPD section for further information about individual CPD modules which can help you to progress into this programme. We’ll also recognise prior learning against optional module credits if you’ve undertaken credit-bearing modules in other institutions in the past five years that relate to your current scope of practice.
