These online modules provide Continuing Professional Development (CPD) education for hospital practitioners, trainees, nursing and paramedical staff and other professionals who are involved in the multidisciplinary care of neonates and very young children.

Standalone modules are an excellent way to enhance your knowledge and contribute to your continuing professional development portfolio. Successful completion of each module will provide you with institutional credit, but the standalone modules listed here are not designed to build towards a specific award (e.g. PgCert/PgDip/MSc). If you are interested in study leading to a named award, please view our MSc Advancing Practice in Neonatology.

Assessment will involve a variety of methods including tests of knowledge and understanding (MCQs, Objective Tests, Short Answer Tests), personal reflection on practice, contribution to case based discussions and written work.

We reserve the right to cancel the delivery of a standalone module. This could happen if a course is under-subscribed or if there is a change in circumstances. This is due to the fact that some modules have minimum student numbers required before they can run. This is to ensure that an appropriate quality of education can be delivered. When this happens we will issue a full or partial refund depending on whether any classes took place.
