PURPOSE AND RATIONALE OF THE QUALIFICATION 
Purpose:
The purpose of the Postgraduate Diploma in Nursing Education is to strengthen and deepen the learners' knowledge and expertise as a speciality of the nursing profession. It is designed to develop the learners' skills based on current thinking, practice, and research methods in the field of nursing education. A high level of theoretical engagement and intellectual independence is needed to acquire the ability to relate knowledge to a range of contexts, undertake professional and highly skilled workers, and to conduct a research project under supervision. A high level of theoretical engagement and intellectual independence is needed to acquire the ability to relate knowledge to a range of contexts, and to undertake professional and highly skilled teaching ability in nursing education.

Upon completion of this qualification, qualifying learners will be able to:
  • Educate nursing learners within the ethical-legal parameters and resolve ethical dilemmas by using decision-making and moral reasoning models.
  • Apply knowledge of basic research methodology in the appraisal of articles and in a research project in the field of nursing education.
  • Facilitate learning to promote the learner's ability to make sound clinical judgment and demonstrate metacognition in nursing education.
  • Facilitate curriculum or programme development.
  • Implement strategies to develop self, peers, and nursing learners by promoting self-directedness through a process of mentoring and precepting.
  • Evaluate the management of an educational programme based on national, professional, and institutional standards.
  • Apply knowledge and principles of the systematic review and guideline development process, to evaluate the standard of guidelines.
  • Apply principles of evidence-based nursing education to improve the quality of education.

    Rationale:
    There is a need for nurse educators in the country as determined by the National Department of Health and the South African Nursing Council (SANC). The qualification will strengthen and deepen the learners' knowledge in the field of nursing education. It will enable the nurse educator to undertake advanced reflection and development by means of a systematic survey of current thinking, practice, and research methods in nursing education.

    The South African Nursing Council as a professional body, published competencies for nurse educators to enable quality training (SANC 2014). Upon successful completion of the qualification, learners will meet the teaching requirements of the Nursing Act (No. 33 of 2005), SANC and Council on Higher Education (CHE) and can play a vital role in the South African Nursing Education Institutions. This qualification demands a high level of theoretical engagement and intellectual independence as well as the ability to relate knowledge to a range of contexts to undertake professional or high skilled nursing education work. The qualification includes conducting and reporting research under supervision. Furthermore, the qualification is recognised and regulated by the SANC and is competency-based. It benefits the individual, the community, society, and the country through the provision of specialised quality nursing education that will empower the learner with the necessary knowledge and skills to practise as a nurse educator.

    Equipped with the necessary knowledge of the educational context and teaching and learning practice, educator competencies, attitudes and values, qualifying professionals will contribute to the development of competence of a diverse category of nurses who can respond appropriately to population health needs. The focus, therefore, is to prepare these professionals in facilitating the theory and clinical skills development of nurses to improve population health outcomes.

    The qualifying learners will function as a lecturer/tutor, clinical educator, education manager, researcher, and specialist in a college or university according to the appropriate legislative framework. The Nurse Educator will also act as a professional team leader and manager after having developed the required practical teaching skills. They will therefore be responsible for developing the capacity of other team members.
