Senior Fellow Higher Education Academy 2018
Having entered medical school in 1977, I went back to being a student nearly 40 years later!
As a doctor and teacher I felt studying for a degree in Clinical Education would help me in my various roles as an educator. There were a number of learning modules which included researching clinical education, curriculum design and evaluation, principles of feedback and mentoring, principles of assessment and the teaching practitioner. I thought as a senior doctor I knew much. Doing this degree brought home to me how much has changed educationally and made me question a number of asumptions I had made.
Having successfully completed the Postgraduate Diploma in Clinical Education in 2018, Vikram then applied for and was awarded a Senior Fellowship of the Higher Education Academy which he is delighted about.
Fitting it all in as ever remains a challenge!
