The Graduate Certificate in Adult Education in the Health and Medical Professions is aimed at those who teach in the Medical and Health Sciences who are preparing adult learners for professional practice in medicine, nursing, or in the allied health professions.
Many who teach in such settings have strong content knowledge in their area of professional practice, but have little background in education on how to effectively teach adult learners.
This 12-credit graduate certificate will assist medical and health professionals in increasing their knowledge and competence in educating adult learners in medical education/health science settings.
Degree conferred: certificate only
