The Manchester Post Basic Dysphagia Course is registered by the Royal College Of Speech And Language Therapists (RCSLT).
The Course was established in 1990 to address the need identified by the Speech
& Language Therapy profession for registered post-qualification dysphagia
training courses.
Initially administered by the Manchester Metropolitan
University, this dysphagia course is now administered by the
Presenters independently.
The Course was originally held annually but, due to demand, is now held twice a year,
usually in June and November.
People attend the Course from all over the UK and also from abroad, particularly
from Ireland, and recently from Hong Kong, South Korea, Saudi Arabia, Dubai and
Greece.

Course.
Each Course tends to get over-subscribed. So if you would like to be one of
the first to know when new course dates are announced and new application forms
are available, just
click here to register your interest. Then you (or
your staff if you are a manager or an administrator) can get to the front of the
queue!
We do not run an advanced dysphagia course. For information about the advanced course, please contact the
advanced course director, Hannah Crawford, on
