Comments from staff and students
What our staff say about the course...
‘Our Masters program enables experienced clinicians to explore, discover, debate, and construct meaningful teaching concepts and relationships that involve real-world problems and to undertake projects that are interesting and relevant. We encourage participants to reflect on and share their collective wisdom of what works well in clinical education’.
‘We want clinical education to be sustainable and effective in the current and future health service environment - there has to be a win-win for multiple stake-holders – a symbiotic relationship – with gains to the clinicians, the patients, the health service, the government, the communities, to the profession as a whole, as well as to the universities and the students’
‘The course isn’t just the theory of how you can teach and learn in the health professions - we want it to be really practical about how you can make it work for you and for your students and for your colleagues and for your community and for your health service and for the university you are involved with’.

‘Good tools for life beyond the course. I love that I can interact with other disciplines, learn different ways of looking at things, question my approach and my assumptions about learning’.
