Urgent Care PGCert Welcome Pack

Welcome to PGCert Urgent Care 2025.

This course aims to develop and equip healthcare professionals with the key knowledge, skills and behaviours needed to autonomously deliver and manage defined episodes of clinical care whilst demonstrating expertise within their scope of practice in an urgent care environment. Registrants will be supported to develop as critically reflective thinkers using an active blended learning approach and work-based learning strategies.

Learning is mapped to the clinical pillar of advanced practice, and as such supports credit transfer (APCL) into our master’s in advanced clinical practice (ACP) award should applicants wish to continue their studies following completion of this award.
