About this Course

Advanced Practice development in the UK was pioneered by Barbara Stilwell, now an Honorary Doctor of London South Bank University.  Dr Stillwell founded the first advanced nursing practice course at the Royal College of Nursing (RCN) in 1990. The original RCN Advanced Nurse Practitioner course moved to London South Bank University, where it has been developed for more than 20 years.

 

Since 2016, Advanced Clinical Practice (ACP) training at LSBU has been multi-professional, in line with the Health Education England (HEE) Multi-professional Framework for Advanced Clinical Practice in England (HEE, 2017). In addition to the Adult MSc, we also have a Child and a Mental Health MSc Advanced Clinical Practice.
