Event Description

This well-established international short course is suitable for healthcare professionals who have more than two years experience of working in palliative and end of life care and who are expected to provide education as part of their role. A three-day multidisciplinary course focusing on modern and effective ways of teaching in palliative and end of life care, this course places an emphasis on how to teach and not just what to teach, providing you with the opportunity to:

Examine specific teaching formats and consider how they can be applied to teaching practice
Explore a range of teaching methods and delivery skills
Discover how the Kolb model can be adapted to enhance Palliative Care teaching
Design learner centred education aimed at specific groups
The course continues to be run in collaboration with Dr Ruthmarijke Smeding, a senior Educational Psychology consultant from the Netherlands, and aims to equip senior professionals with modern and effective ways of teaching in palliative and end of life care using specific educational theory. There is a fee for this course.
