Form
Advanced Clinical Assessment unit next runs in October 2026 and will be delivered alongside a new sister unit: Foundations of Clinical Examination. The two units are co-requisite and run in parallel. This means you must take both together.
Students must be working in a setting where they will be able to observe and carry out hands-on clinical examinations on a range of patients with suitable supervision. We therefore require some additional details about applicants' clinical experience and workplace.
You must complete our Essential Information Form and upload it to your application. An information document is available below so you can see what details you will need to provide and ensure you are in the right setting with appropriate support to complete the units.
