Oxford Centre for Education and Research in Palliative Care: Sobell House (OxCERPC)

OxCERPC (formerly Sobell Study Centre) provides a wide range of educational opportunities to support the continuing professional development of those working in palliative and end of life care. OxCERPC offers an annual programme of study days, courses and conferences. These are delivered by specialist staff working at Sobell House and by an invited faculty of external teachers to ensure that we deliver up-to-date knowledge and reflect best practice. We provide a first class learning experience and place a high value on the quality and integrity of our teaching. We think carefully about how people learn when planning our courses, and our teachers are well-respected practitioners in their fields. Our course programme underpins the common core competencies and principles for health care practitioners working with adults at the end of life. Courses range from short half day sessions to two and three day courses and attract a variety of participants – from volunteers to experienced health care practitioners, locally, nationally and internationally.
