STOP PRESS: Edge Hill University is pleased to announce that it will not be increasing its fees for health and social care CPD courses for the next academic year (2012/13). The move is part of Edge Hill’s commitment to support professionals in their quest to increase their skills and improve the care they give to patients. It will also allow Edge Hill’s existing students to continue with their studies without fear of affordability.
Postgraduate Study & Professional Development for Health & Social Care Professionals
Edge Hill University’s Faculty of Health and Social Care is one of the largest providers of health and social care education and professional development in the North West of England. A leading university in the UK for professional development, Edge Hill is in the top two among English universities for students’ personal development (National Student Survey 2010/11) and top in the North West for Teaching Excellence (Sunday Times University Guide 2012).
Offering an innovative postgraduate and continuing professional development (CPD) portfolio, the Faculty provides flexible and responsive provision for professionals seeking to enhance health and social care delivery whilst progressing in their careers.
Our experienced team of lecturers offers a range of CPD training to the whole health and social care workforce. Our teaching, support and resources are student-focused and attract individuals from a wide range of backgrounds including those with non-traditional qualifications or experience and those who have not studied for a number of years.
We recognise that our professional development students are in full or part-time employment and have many personal commitments and we therefore strive to provide a learning experience which is flexible whilst designed to meet professional needs and learning requirements.
