Entry requirements
The entry requirements listed here are our typical offer for this course if you wish to begin studying with us in 2019. They should be used as a general guide.
Degree and experience
Students should:
- be registered with the appropriate professional body in the UK and should have a minimum of three years post-registration experience
- be working for a minimum of 15 hours a week, in a role which is suitable for the development of an advanced level of practice
- normally be expected to hold a first degree.
Graduates who have not studied in the previous five years would normally be required to complete and pass a single module relevant to the course, before enrolling on the full course. Credits from this module will then count towards the total number of credits needed.
Applicants without a first degree would normally be expected to demonstrate an ability to study at level 7 by completing a level 7 module, for example a study skills module, before enrolling for the full course.
Students require the support of a workplace mentor who is educated to at least masters level.
Applicants who meet the admissions criteria will also normally be required to attend an interview and provide one academic reference and one employer reference as to their suitability for the course.
