From international Clearing to the Council of Deans of Health’s Student Leadership Programme

I joined Coventry University because I felt the course was catered to help me pursue my goal of researching across the world and building a global career in Public Health.

I’m looking forward to the coaching scheme part of the Programme, I will be paired with an individual who is an inspired leader, thinker, creator and front runner in their healthcare discipline, and I look forward to learning from them.

We want our students to go on and become the next generation of healthcare leaders.

That is why we design our HLS courses to give them the tools and opportunities to build leadership skills.

I am passionate about providing a leadership pathway for our students and early-career health professionals. That is why we took on the leadership of the Nursing Now Challenge, a movement designed to support the leadership development of the global health workforce.

I am delighted that Elton has been selected for this prestigious Programme and hope his selection is the first of many.

I advise students who go through Clearing to make sure they pick up the phone and use the helpline. The team are super helpful and will talk you through applying for a course that you are interested in. They helped ease my anxiety and were really supportive.

You should make sure you read through the course module details, including the course guide that interested you the most. I found that helped with the strength of my personal statement and application, to secure a spot at Coventry.
