Using experience and expertise rooted in hospice care, we have developed educational training programmes to provide personal learning and development for clinical and non-clinical organisations. Many courses available are tailored to support 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. However many training courses are suitable for non-clinical services such as HR departments, solicitors and funeral directors.
We take pride in using multiple teaching methods inclusive of all learning styles. This is including but not limited to problem-solving, case studies, simulation, activity-based learning, lectures, seminars, peer learning, quizzes, debates, reflection and games.
Download our prospectusWe combine extensive expertise in teaching, leadership, and clinical practice to make education fun, engaging, inclusive, and relevant to practice. Our teaching recognises and draws upon the knowledge and experience in the room, creating opportunities for learners to share ideas, learn from one another, and apply new learning confidently.
We also work with specialists, including Advanced Clinical Practitioners, Doctors, Consultants, Counsellors, and other subject experts. This ensures our training is informed by current evidence and delivered by educators with genuine expertise and practical experience.
Since we started, we have trained over 900 people and 100% of learners agree or strongly agree that our training is delivered to a high standard.
