Graduate Certificate in Health Professional Education
Have you ever
- Wondered why there wasn't more inter-professional training in teaching and learning?
- Wondered if other health disciplines had more effective ways of teachin6 their colleagues?
- Questioned how effective your own teaching style is?
- Heard of the 'See, Do, Teach' apprentice model of teaching and learning and wondered if this is really effective?
- Wondered what a formal teaching qualification could do for your ability to teach?
Chances are, as health professionals, the answer to most of these questions is yes!
The Graduate Certificate in Health Professional Education (GCHPE) will provide solutions and answers to these questions and more. The course is facilitated by nationally recognised presenters and assessors and unlike most other distance education courses; the GCHPE has three face-to-face teaching intensives.
Testimonials
"I've been able to develop teaching materials using the principles taught by the course that are assessed as coursework and that I can use in the teaching sessions I had to develop for work anyway."
"Face-to-face teaching contact is essential and motivational.”
"It is extremely useful to find out what other heath professionals are doing.”
The course recognises the importance of developing the teaching skills of health professional educators and is designed for teaching in nursing, medicine, dietetics, paramedics, social work, psychology, pharmacy, radiography and dentistry etc. Participants gain the additional benefit of developing interprofessional networks, plus there is a focus on teaching and learning in Indigenous, rural and remote settings.
The program is inclusive, innovative and practical. We encourage your participation and welcome enquiries.
