Who is this course for?

If you are currently a consultant neurologist, a final-year registrar, an experienced MS specialist nurse, allied health professional, neuropsychologist, pharmacist or GPwER working in MS, this course is for you.

This course is the ultimate in specialism development and requires attendees to have a strong background and experience in MS as a starting point. Ideal for healthcare professionals who already have a specialist interest in MS and have been working in the area for at least 3 years and have ideally completed the MS Foundation MasterClass.

What will the course include?

Our in-depth and practically-applicable learning tackles specific issues around the management of MS throughout a person’s journey with the disease, such as de-risking MS DMTs, complex symptom management or tackling the variation in MS care or service access in the UK. This education is case-based, practical and interactive. Our speaker faculty is multi-disciplinary across healthcare and research which allows deeper practical and interactive conversations around the case studies discussed.

Course attendees are already equipped with a strong understanding of MS, including clinical management, patient experience and optimal treatment and service support, so this MasterClass develops this further with a deeper dive into:

• Introduction to leadership in MS
• Update on the NHS neurology transformation plans
• Paediatric MS
• Women's health
• Diagnosis and differential diagnosis: deeper dive
• Vocational rehabilitation: focus on employment
• Complex symptom management
• Complex disease modifying therapy management
• Neuroradiology
• Complex decision making, progressive and advanced MS.

Ultimately promoting holistic management of MS, the course will provide practical learning and inspiring service models that are cemented through the inter-module project, an essential part of the overall course.

Intermodule project

This MasterClass includes an intermodule project as a mandatory part of the course, which takes the practical education to a fundamental level. It’s an opportunity to test new knowledge and skills, while improving local services. Delegates are offered mentorship and encouraged to support their peers as they continue to develop their specialism in a way that directly impacts patients’ outcomes.

Attendees have free reign over their project, and it’s the perfect opportunity for delegates to develop or investigate an area of interest in their service. This may be a new service delivery, mapping a care pathway, an innovative new way of working, streamlining services, specifics around patient management or a more detailed look at drug treatments. It could take the form of an audit, patient feasibility study, retrospective review or another form of research. It should meet a local need to develop a new or existing service and will contribute towards the delegate’s personal development. → View previous projects here.
