ROYAL COLLEGE OF SURGEONS IN IRELAND, FACULTY OF NURSING & MIDWIFERY AND SCHOOL OF NURSING COURSES 2010-2011
The Faculty of Nursing & Midwifery and School of Nursing has delivered post-graduate nursing and
midwifery education since establishment in 1974. Programmes range from certifi cate level to PhD,

An innovative Blended learning approach, employed in 2009, uses two or more distinct methods
of delivering education including face-to-face teaching ‘offl ine’ and computer-mediated teaching
‘online.’ Combining the two learning environments uses the benefi ts of each, resulting in greater
accessibility to learning.
• Benefi ts of blended learning
• Allows for greater fl exibility in how, when and where students study
• Reduces travel time and expenses
• Meets the educational needs of a clinically diverse nursing body with broader course content
• Achieves a more acceptable work life balance
• Face-to-face tuition supports online learning
• Discussion forum ensures that students are fully supported
