Educating for empathy in healthcare (3-day course)

Save the date: 20 to 22 April 2026

This innovative and pioneering training course provides clinicians, educators and academics with the skills needed to develop empathy teaching in their own setting. In addition, attendees will learn to support others to recognise the barriers and challenges to embedding empathy across the systems they work in, and to develop effective strategies for overcoming them.

Empathy benefits both patients and practitioners: become an expert in teaching this essential skill!
