Educational Courses
Using our experience and expertise, we have developed educational programmes tailored to provide personal and learning and development for those caring for or supporting people affected by life-limiting illness.
Our programmes are designed to meet the needs of a range of healthcare staff, both registered and unregistered, and non-clinicians.
We use a range of teaching methods inclusive of all learning styles, including but not limited to problem-based learning, case studies, simulation, activity-based learning, lectures, seminars, peer learning, quizzes, debates, reflection and games.
