Bespoke education and CPD

The School of Health and Life Sciences works with organisations and individuals to deliver a number of programmes and short courses which are designed to suit professionals working in a range of different areas.

Why take a CPD course?

A continuing professional development course helps you:

  • Develop your career
  • Maintain your professional registration
  • Keep pace with the rapidly changing health and social care needs of the 21st century
  • And our health CPD courses can be taken for university credit.

Depending on the type of course you choose, you will study at the University over one or more days or on a set time over a number of weeks, in your workplace, or via e-learning.

All courses are supported by the University’s state-of-the-art study facilities, including GCU Learn our virtual learning environment.
