  2. Practitioner Training ProgrammesHealthcare Science(Life Sciences)Blood Sciences Cellular Sciences Genetic Sciences Infection Sciences Healthcare Science (Physiological Sciences) Cardiac Physiology Respiratory & Sleep Physiology

  3. Models of Provision • 3 models proposed • Model 1: working in a HCS specialism • i.e. within blood sciences specialism of the Life Sciences division • trainee associate would undertake a programme based on the first two years of the PTP BSc (Hons), including the work-based assessment and would exit with a FdSc

  4. Models of Provision • 3 models proposed • Model 2: working across a HCS division • work primarily within one specialism within a division, but undertake additional roles from other specialisms within that division. • i.e. roles are emerging across cardiac physiology, respiratory physiology and vascular science specialisms. • Associate practitioners would complete the FdSc in their primary specialism and undertake additional learning modules and work based training in the additional specialism areas as required.

  5. Models of Provision • 3 models proposed • Model 3: working across HCS divisions • Cross divisional roles across life sciences, physiological sciences and physics and engineering may emerge within community and acute care settings

  6. Models of Provision • Programme delivery must be accessible and flexible. • Should include part-time taught courses, distance learning and blended learning options. • Must carry academic credit to ensure individuals are eligible to progress to the practitioner training programme (PTP). • To maximise the scope for career progression, the MSC models for the provision of these programmes are drawn from the PTP curricula.

  7. MSC CAREER FRAMEWORK 2-4 • Core Modules – related to main functions of roles

  8. MSC CAREER FRAMEWORK 2-4 • Themed Modules – related to main functions of roles

  9. MSC CAREER FRAMEWORK 2-4
