MA Health & Wellbeing (post-graduate certificate in Healthcare Quality Improvement)

UHI was the only university offering the course I wished to complete, it is also my local university.

This post-graduate certificate offered me the opportunity to learn the different quality improvement methods and approaches and how they can be applied to improve services. Part-time learning with discussion boards and seminars allowed for group exploration of the subjects while working around full-time employment. The three tutors were very different in approach and style but were all experts in relating theory to practice. Each tutor took the time to understand the professional background of each student, tailoring the teaching style and approach to the student group. 

Having been away from formal study for almost 20 years and online learning appearing outwardly to be so isolating, UHI immediately welcomed me as a mature student. My queries and concerns were answered and while the course was a huge undertaking it has opened up a world of learning, possibilities, and contacts for me.
