Description

The Health Board is committed to supporting the development of a highly skilled workforce capable of delivering safe, effective, and advanced patient care. As part of this commitment, the Health Board is seeking to secure high-quality post-registration academic education that aligns with clinical service needs and supports staff progression into enhanced, advanced practice and consultant level practice. The programme includes tailored clinical assessment modules such as generic, paediatric-specific, advanced assessment, and minor illness and incorporates non-medical prescribing. Learners on the Advanced Clinical Practitioner (ACP) route can complete a 60-credit advanced practice portfolio as a dissertation, aligning academic learning with clinical competencies. For those pursuing alternative professional pathways, a work-based project dissertation provides a relevant and practical alternative, broadening the programme’s applicability across the wider workforce.

Legal Justification

The proposed contract with Cardiff University will be awarded via direct award under the provisions of the Procurement Act 2023, Schedule 5, Section 7 (a)(b) - Additional or Repeat Goods, Services or Works. A change of provider at this stage would disrupt clinical workforce development plans and create significant operational challenges. Many learners are mid-way through Cardiff University’s MSc programmes or have accumulated credits through standalone modules that are uniquely structured in 30-credit blocks, making the university the only institution locally able to integrate those credits into a full MSc. Transferring to another provider would risk the loss of those credits, duplicate learning, delay qualification timelines, and introduce unnecessary additional costs.
