Course programme

Course review:

The course begins with an intensive five days of seminars, either on-site in our spacious premises in Luton or (by commission) at satellite locations. These five days may be split into two blocks if desired. The student then undergoes six months of supervised practice with an approved mentor (usually a GP). Students must complete five assignments and a Manual of Clinical Competencies.

Seminars include:

  • Tips on Clinical Examination
  • Clinical Skills 1, 2 and 3
  • Pharmacology 1,2 and 3
  • Writing a Prescription
  • Evidence Based Practice
  • Communication
  • Management of Change

    The course is accredited by the University of Bedfordshire for 45 CATS points at Level 3, and the quoted price includes the cost of University accreditation.

    Those not wishing to achieve accreditation can attend tfor he five days of seminars or the Update afternoon.

    The course price includes lunches, refreshments, all course materials, and a copy of the "Minor Illness Manual". We have been running this course for the last ten years, and many of our students have voted it "The best course that I have ever been on". Unlike many nursing courses, we focus on giving you exactly the information that you need for safe and competent practice.
