At Trinity we share our expertise with others in our sector to raise the quality of end of life care elsewhere in the health and social care system.

We offer workshops throughout the year in a blended learning approach ranging from introducing palliative care through to symptom control and onto considering ethics.

Most courses will combine independent learning with an instructor-led training element. Where this is the case, the independent learning (usually lasting 3-4 hours via our online platform) must be completed in order to access instructor-led learning. 

Dates for the instructor-led learning element of the courses will be released about a month beforehand to ensure you have enough time to complete this.
