We have adopted the blended learning approach for our programme delivery.  Some sessions will be delivered face to face and others on line.

  • All teaching sessions are on Thursdays
  • We have added one full study day in place of 2 HDR that month

We aim to make your learning experience as varied and interesting as possible, while ensuring the teaching is curriculum based and relevant.  We use different models and tools to deliver the teaching sessions.  These include group work, presentations and interactive sessions.  We encourage trainee participation where possible.  We also use the creative arts in some of our sessions (medical humanities).  Please see the creative arts section of this web site. We also go off site on occasions for alternative teaching sessions.     

Attendance at all sessions is mandatory and all reasons for absence must be reported beforehand to Wendy Buch via email.
