To recent graduates and final year students:
We are offering a PG Cert in Clinical Practice (validated by Middlesex University). This would be of particular use to any of you who are working or are planning to work as a clinician in a training environment (osteopathic or otherwise) or equally to anyone who is interested in enhancing their skills in learning and teaching.
We are also delivering our Naturopathy module which, with some additional clinical experience and assessment, will enable you to gain our Naturopathic Diploma (ND). This is likely to be the last opportunity to gain an ND via this particular programme as all UK naturopathic training is currently undergoing realignment.
Our ND has been validated by the General Council and Register of Naturopaths (GCRN) and remains a recognised route into the profession only until such time as the new General Naturopathic Council (GCN) becomes fully operational.
If you are interested in the ND, but not the PGCert, then why not sign up for our Advanced Diploma in Osteopathy (ADO) at the same time! It consists of a Structured Personal Portfolio module (similar to your old friend the IPP) and two other modules – currently on offer are naturopathy and cranial! We may even be able to get credit for the cranial module if you’ve already done it.
