    The Graduate Diploma in Clinical Education is a 36-unit program offered by the Faculty of Health Sciences on a fee-paying basis.

    The graduate diploma will provide health professionals with advanced knowledge and skills to deliver clinical education in health service settings. This is an emergent specialty field of education characterised by a symbiotic relationship between the learner, an experienced clinical educator and the health service.
