Post Graduate Diplomas Short Course Professional Qualifications

At HC Skills International, we believe that Professional development – doesn’t need to take forever. WHETHER you are a clinician with a teaching role as part of your professional responsibility or an employee of a medical device company who has a responsibility to provide support to clinical teams, our courses provide the additional skills for professional development in these respective roles.

All HC Skills International learning programmes are tailored to the Professional Development requirements of those undertaking them and they conform to their respective professional disciplines and specialties.

Furthermore, our courses are delivered in our virtual classroom by experts with the defining knowledge and experience in their fields.

How can we deliver a Postgraduate Diploma learning programme over a short period of time?

The answer lies in the level of entry to our courses. Delegates registering for our short-course qualifications are professionals who have Accredited Prior Learning (APL) or Recognised Prior Learning (RPL) evidence that is verifiable, at degree level or above.

The PGDip in Clinical Leadership, for example, has been approved by EduQualas being commensurate with Level 7 (Postgraduate) Qualifications in the United Kingdom.

This course is a vocational qualification and is open only to those who have recognised prior learning (RPL) in their specialty and have a responsibility for support or training i.e. a medical, nursing or healthcare-related degree.

HC Skills International is a fully registered and accredited training institution delivering sector-leading courses and officially recognised and externally regulated qualifications to medical professionals and to healthcare industry employees who are required to interact with them.
