Musculoskeletal work based learning

Our musculoskeletal ultrasound courses teach the skills needed by professionals looking to advance their careers.

The PgCert in musculoskeletal ultrasound, PgCert in musculoskeletal ultrasound foot and ankle and ultrasound guided injections (PH5646) have aspects of work-based learning. This imperative aspect of learning is required to cement the skills you will learn within the classroom and then apply to a clinical population within your clinical environment. This aspect of training is organised by students and overseen by Brunel. This allows this experience to be reflective of individual students' clinical environments and flexible to their learning needs. 

In module 2 of the PgCert in musculoskeletal ultrasound and PgCert in musculoskeletal ultrasound foot and ankle you will need to complete the 250 scans logbook (100 supervised, 150 unsupervised/mentored to a level commensurate with your training). During ultrasound guided injections module you will need to complete 20 injections which are supervised by your mentor.

Mentor requirements for the PgCert Musculoskeletal Ultrasound and the PgCert Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Foot & Ankle are:

  • AHP who holds a CASE accredited/PgCert MSK Ultrasound with 2 years minimum experience following completion.
  • MSK Radiologist with 2 years experience using MSK ultrasound
