Foundation Programme
This suite of 8 free, online courses will develop your knowledge, understanding, and confidence to improve services and support for people living with Parkinson’s.
About the Foundation Programme
The Foundation Programme has been developed for health and care professionals as part of our Excellence Network's commitment to improving Parkinson's care across the UK.
The programme consists of 8 courses, designed to introduce different aspects of the condition and its management. Completing all 8 will give a broad overview of Parkinson's, giving you the skills to reflect on, adapt and enhance your practice to better support those living with the condition.
We recommend completing the courses in order from 1 to 8, but you can choose the courses most relevant to your professional development and complete them in any order that suits you. Completing the whole programme will earn you a 4-hour CPD certificate.
This programme, developed in collaboration with subject matter experts and people with lived experience, is hosted on our Knowing Parkinson’s learning platform. To access the courses, you'll need to log in to Knowing Parkinson's or create an account.
