RCSI Institute of Leadership

As health professionals, we now work in a challenging and rapidly changing environment that requires us to display, in addition to our technical/clinical skills, a broad range of leadership, supervisory and management skills.However, most of us will have received little or no training in our professional careers for these demanding roles. Established in 2005, the RCSI Institute of Leadership provides opportunities for health professionals to develop as leaders capable of displaying a wide range of management and supervisory skills in their clinical or administrative roles. With over 400 students registered for postgraduate degrees and an equal number taking our short development programmes, the Institute is fully integrated into the RCSI. We achieve our mission through a combination of academic rigour, a practical focus on improving healthcare delivery and helping professionals understand and develop themselves.Our degree programes are part-time, interprofessional and modular and delivered using a blend of distance and classroom education. We offer a range of accredited postgraduate diploma and masters programmes in leadership, professional development, healthcare management, quality and patient safety.
