Non-Medical Prescribing (PG Certificate)

Course Details

The Postgraduate Certificate comprises three compulsory modules.

All students must undertake two modules:

1. Pharmacotherapeutics for Prescribing
2. Prescribing in Practice

Students who have not completed a Health Assessment module previously must also take Health Assessment (NMP7002).

Students may claim an exemption from the Health Assessment module, in which case they will be awarded a professional qualification only and not an academic award.

Students are also required to complete a clinical competency workbook.

In addition to examinations and written assignments, students are also required to complete a clinical competency workbook.

At Queen’s, we aim to deliver a high quality learning environment that embeds intellectual curiosity, innovation and best practice in learning, teaching and student support to enable student to achieve their full academic potential.

On this course we do this by providing a range of learning experiences which enable our students to engage with subject experts, develop attributes and perspectives that will equip them for life and a world class library that enhances their development as independent, lifelong learners.

Teaching is across a combination of morning and afternoon classes with some modules being taught entirely online.

Examples of the opportunities provided for learning on this course include; lectures, practical experiences, E-Learning technologies, Self-directed study and added value qualifications to enhance employability.
