Masters Degree Description

The Higher Professional Education course offered by Oxford Brookes is open to applicants who are currently practising in a health or social care setting within the UK. The course starts in September or January and is designed for a wide range of health and social care professionals who are involved in education, training or facilitation for all or part of their role.

It offers participants the opportunity to understand the emerging nature of professional education in health and social care, its context and their role within it. It aims to build knowledge and skills, and challenges the attitudes of those currently involved in higher professional education in the context of health and social care. It also aids the development of your knowledge, skills and expertise as an educational practitioner, curriculum developer and strategic planner in your chosen area.
