Train to Become a Foot Health Practitioner
Join our Professional Diploma in Clinical Foot Health Practice and gain the knowledge, skills and practical experience needed to begin your career in foot health.
Our Foot Health Practitioner course has been designed to develop safe, confident and competent practitioners through a combination of flexible theory study and supervised practical clinical training.
The course includes 12 compulsory theory units, a Clinical Introduction Day, and hands-on clinical training with real patients in our working clinic.
Practical training is delivered in very small groups, with a maximum of two students, allowing for close supervision and individual guidance. Progress is based on each student’s clinical competency rather than a fixed number of training days.
Upon successful completion of the theory programme and the required clinical competency, students complete their training as a Foot Health Practitioner.
