Teaching, dates and assessment

Teaching combines lectures, practical work and discussion with self-directed study. The provider offers an online learning platform and app, live online sessions, WhatsApp and case support, mentoring and opportunities to reattend teaching. The advertised EduQual Level 7 diploma requires satisfactory assessments and a clinical portfolio; it is not an MSc or specialist registration. The verified September 2027 London intake has nine Friday/Saturday blocks ending in May 2028. The provider describes four days of supervised live-patient teaching and opportunities to see patients. Confirm case allocation, patient arrangements and the precise venue before booking.
