Leadership in Health and Social Care (Distance Learning)

Overview

This programme is designed to help you progress as a healthcare professional. It will give you both the skills and the professional qualification you need to apply for more senior leadership and management positions within health and social care.

Our team of experienced academics and practitioners focus on competent management and effective leadership, giving students from both clinical and managerial backgrounds the tools required to deliver service improvement and sustainable change in health and social care settings.

The programme is suitable if you:

You will have the opportunity to study with people from a variety of different services and settings. The programme is designed to fit into your busy working schedule and to be as useful as possible to both yourself and your employer.

We combine study and assessment of theory alongside its application within a work setting.
