The overall philosophy is to encourage an analytical, questioning attitude, which in turn will lead to an increase in evidence-based practice together with innovation in clinical practice. Allied Health Professionals and members of other related disciplines often require both academic accreditation and flexibility when seeking continuing professional development (CPD) and our postgraduate courses endeavour to fulfil these needs. This flexible course is available on a part-time or modular route. Additionally, modules can be taken as independent standalone programs of study.

Employability
The aim of this flexible modular course is to broaden your knowledge and understanding of neurological and neuromuscular healthcare management and rehabilitation and encourage your personal development. It is also about fostering greater insight into how different disciplines, through a program of shared learning and teaching, can contribute to this aim. This course facilitates analysis, discussion, and critical appraisal of scientific and clinical knowledge.
Key Facts
Requirements
- The course is open to therapists, (e.g. physiotherapists, occupational therapists), and other health professionals. Applicants should normally have a first or second-class honors degree (2.1 or 2.2) (or overseas equivalent) in a relevant subject such as Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy, or an equivalent professional qualification.
- In addition, applicants must normally have completed at least 12 months of professional work experience by 30 June prior to admission or be registered with the UK Professional Council or overseas equivalent. Registration with your Professional Council is strongly recommended; if this is not obtained then this may limit your choice of options since you will not be able to undertake practical clinical modules.
