This part-time PGCert is curated for qualified radiographers who are either currently practising in MRI or aspiring to transition into the modality, providing the academic rigour to extend professional autonomy.

You will engage with contemporary MRI theory, safety governance, and strategic service design, underpinned by the four pillars of advanced clinical practice. The programme is delivered entirely online, enabling you to balance professional commitments while participating in a global peer community. By utilising industry-standard software and authentic clinical case studies, you will develop the critical decision-making skills required to influence patient care and service delivery in complex health and social care environments.
