Professionalism Standards, Ethical Behaviour and Student Support
The Faculty fosters students' personal and professional growth so that you develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes required to enter the professional health delivery and health research workforce.
The ProFESS framework has a strong focus on student health and well being and highlights the importance of personal growth as well as the development of a strong understanding of the relationship between behaviour and professional standards.
ProFESS fosters a positive developmental approach to professional standards and ethical behaviour and students will come into contact with the different components of the framework as they develop into accountable and responsible professionals.
