Overview

The Advanced Leadership for Professional Practice (Nursing) course from The University of Manchester is aimed at nurses registered with a relevant professional, statutory or equivalent regulatory body. You will study content that reflects professional, UK-wide government and international benchmarks for advanced level practice in health and social care, enhancing your suitability for revalidation.

This includes contemporary knowledge and skills in clinical and direct care practice, leadership and collaborative practice, improving quality and developing practice, and developing self and others.

You will learn how to develop efficient and ethical ways of working that offer a better quality of life and care by placing service users and carers at the centre of decision-making and service redesign.

Career opportunities

The course is structured around the real challenges facing advanced level practitioners, and each unit will draw from, and build on, your own professional experience.
