Detailed Requirements
We are inviting bids from Higher Education Institutions in England for the provision of an innovative, post-graduate blended learning course in Genomics for a funded cohort of nurses and midwives.

c) Undertaking Genomics related conversations with patients and their families
d) Research and evaluation skills
e) Process in place to enable students to evidence work-based learning
The course must include opportunities to practise skills and learning through role play with feedback, case-based discussions, group work, written and spoken exercises and reflective learning. Pre-and post-course evaluation must be included.
Opportunity for private study between each of the periods of course delivery is expected.
Access to online learning platforms, including support networks for learners e.g. Blackboard.
Bidders must be able to provide appropriate administrative resources to register the learners for the course and to deal with ongoing queries.
