Multicultural Student Guidance Skills

There are no prerequisites for the course. It is recommended that you have already worked as a student counsellor. As an undergraduate in the field of social and health care, you should be in the advanced studies phase so that you already have experience of work placements and working in the social care sector.

After completing the course you will be able to - define key concepts related to culture and understand that all students with an immigrant background have a unique cultural background. - identify the challenges that nursing students and nurses with an immigrant background face during their practice and work and understand how these challenges can impact learning and integration in the health care field. - communicate the importance of effective communication and interaction in student nursing and identify ways to promote interaction. - reflect on your own cultural competence in student counselling and identify areas for further development.

All learning materials can be found on the course's Moodle learning platform.
