Improve ONE thing: The Full QIP – is an innovative course designed for professionals working in all specialities. QIClearn brings together medical trainees, consultants, nurses, pharmacists and allied health professionals with patients and their carers.
Working alongside each other QIClearn will support you to design, test and implement meaningful improvements in 4 months. The Improve ONE thing ethos is about providing the right balance of theory and practice. So, we focus on the practical elements of improvement science and how improvement works on the ground in your healthcare context.
This approach is supplemented by online learning which is designed to be ‘bite-sized’ and manageable for busy professionals. Our instructors will support you to identify and describe a problem that you would like to work on, practice using quality improvement tools and techniques, implement small cycles of change and measure whether your changes have made a difference to patient care.
Earn bragging rights with your peers as you share award winning QI posters and abstract submissions as have many of our learners. Our courses offer real, practical, methodical and technical changes drawing on many examples and case studies to progress your learning.
Our courses are affordable, and recognised by several local study budgets for reimbursement.
Your work will be supported by a group of mentors who have experience in using quality improvement methods in your services. Their local expertise is also invaluable to the long-term sustainability of your improvements.
This course is for healthcare staff working in the UK and Ireland, including International Medical Trainees (IMTs).
If your Specialty or Region has its own QIC course please return to the courses page and click on the relevant course and register there.
The purpose of this course it to teach you a structured improvement method that you can use again and again.
Completion of this course is often used as evidence to support curriculum requirements for Quality Improvement. Depending on the topic you work on you may also gather evidence for other domains such as Patient Safety, Leadership, Team working etc.
