Leadership in health professions education means more than teaching, it involves shaping learning environments, influencing curriculum, and supporting others to grow.

This 6 week, Level 9 micro-credential is for healthcare professionals who want to develop their leadership capacity in clinical, academic or education-focused roles.

You’ll explore leadership theories and models, with a focus on collaborative working, educational change, and influencing policy and practice. You’ll also look at how leadership supports innovation, partnership and quality improvement in health professional education settings.

Whether you're supporting learners in practice or leading education programmes, this module will help you reflect on your own leadership style and develop strategies to lead with purpose and impact.

This module is associated with Health Professions Education - MSc. It can be taken as a standalone micro-credential or as part of a pathway to a larger award.
