Graduate Diploma in Wound Care for 2010

Course overview

The Graduate Diploma in Wound Care builds on the foundational content of the Graduate Certificate and offers health professionals an opportunity to gain a detailed understanding of different aspects of wound management. Students are able to expand their knowledge and skills in specific wound care specialties depending on their discipline or area of interest. Students are expected to attend a compulsory one-week residential (on-campus) study block to participate in a series of practical workshops and wound clinic observations.

Career outlook

The Graduate Diploma articulates into the Master of Wound Care. This further study provides students with the opportunity to specialise in an area of wound care relevant to their practice. In some instances, graduates are entitled to extra salary increments and allowances.
