Job description

This is an 18 month, full-time Integrated training scheme to deliver the Academic and work place training leading to both a Post-graduate certificate in Echocardiography and Level 2 BSE Accreditation in Transthoracic Echo.
The academic component consists of one existing 30 credit module (Ultrasound imaging in Cardiac Disease) from the STP, and one 30 credit module written specifically to cover other aspects of the BSE syllabus including Physics and professional elements. Trainees, funded at A4C Band 6, are required to complete a variety of competencies and assessments for each module within the workplace and these are recorded on an e-portfolio (Onefile). Simulator training, which can increase self-directed training time and accelerate hands-on clinical skills in Echocardiography, is supported on the course and the immersive, full-time, supernumary nature of the role will enable suitably trained Echocardiographers to enter the workforce in a significantly shortened timescale compared to current training models.
Applicants should have an honours degree (1st or 2.1) in Cardiac Physiology (PTP) or relevant scientific subject or equivalent experience and appropriate underpinning knowledge and skills in cardiology. A 2:2 honours degree in a suitable subject may be considered by the Universities for candidates with significant prior cardiac knowledge/experience.
