Dear Colleagues, As indicated by Chris (see below), the Robert Gordon University continues to offer the distance learning option for a degree with Specialist Practice accreditation. Some attendance is required, but currently this is three periods of no more than 10 days in total over the degree period (not including a Foundation Course of one week, if this is required). The course is being restructured for re-validation in June 2004, so the attendance requirements may change from Sep 2004. The full list of OHN courses has already been circulated, and the OHN team at RGU emphasise that distance learning is not an easy option, and we always advise that prospective students should carefully consider their situation as well as courses offered by other providers which may be better suited to their individual needs. For further details of the BA Community Health Nursing (Occupational Health Nursing) with Specialist practice, see http://www.rgu.ac.uk/nursing/courses/page.cfm?pge=3567 Rgds Harry Harry Horsley, Lecturer tel 262637 [log in to unmask] The School of Nursing & Midwifery has relocated to the new Garthdee Campus.

She had originally wanted a distance learning course so she has just contacted Portsmouth after seeing this e-mail. Unfortunately they have had to to withdraw this course because the NMC would not give Occupational Practitioner status. They think Robert Gordon uni in Aberdeen still do it but it means attending one week each semester.

The final year of a 3 year programme split over 2 years. Therefore you need sufficient CAT points to progress on to the third year (120 points if memory serves me correct). Really good course, supportive tutors and course work that benefits practice.
