Professional Navigator

"Hello, I am Nicola, and I am the Professional Navigator for the School of Nursing and Midwifery. You can contact me via my email address navigator@bcu.ac.uk or telephone 0121 331 6162”

"I help health and social care professionals to choose the right Continuing Professional Development (CPD) courses for them. Whether this is advice on which courses can top up your diploma to a degree, what course might be suitable as a postgraduate level 7 option, or whether you are enquiring as to what short course / module might be appropriate to maintain your continuing professional development; I aim to tailor my advice to suite your bespoke needs and remove the confusion about what to do next."

"During our first conversation which could be on email, the telephone or virtually through MS teams, you won’t need all your certificates to hand: I can usually offer initial advice based on our conversation. If we then need to have your certificates for more tailored advice, we can discuss this at that first conversation."

"I can advise on the short courses we offer, which don’t bear credits but teach new workplace skills, and flexible study options. I also help international professionals carry out prior award comparisons."
