MSc Advanced Clinical Practice Degree Apprenticeship

Liverpool John Moores University

Our MSc Advanced Clinical Practice masters apprenticeship allows you to individualise your postgraduate learning journey. Through a mix of core and option modules, reflecting a range of clinical specialties and areas of interest, you can tailor your study to best meet your career aspirations. Please note: Government funding for Level 7 apprenticeships will cease from January 2026. No applications will be accepted for any Level 7 programmes starting in 2026, even if they currently appear in our programme calendar. For further information, please refer to the official guidance on the Government’s apprenticeship webpages. This two-year, part-time degree apprenticeship incorporates off-the-job learning to develop your knowledge, skills and the behaviours aligned to the Advance Clinical Practitioner apprenticeship standard (ST0564). Year 1 of the degree apprenticeship consists of five core (compulsory) modules totalling 90 credits, with Introduction to the Principles of Advanced Clinical Practice as the initial module for all learners. The following modules reflect each of the four pillars of advanced practice and are evenly weighted. This ensures that you gain a solid foundation of knowledge, skills and attributes in line with the Multi-professional Framework for Advanced Clinical Practice Capabilities (HEE, 2017), with the 'knowledge, skills and behaviours' of the Advanced Clinical Practitioner standard (ST0564) fully reflected.
