Healthcare mentorship update courses
When you become mentor you will need to update your skills and knowledge on a yearly basis as this is a requirement from the NMC council.
You can do the healthcare mentorship updates in our University throughout the year every month except August. We also offer healthcare mentorship updates specifically for sign-off mentors and they are held twice per semester.
You will receive a certificate of attendance which counts towards your triennial review.
