The Role of Professional Doctorates and Work-Based Learning in Promoting Public Health: Professional Doctorates and Work-Based Scholarship
Abstract
The current chapter explores how Professional Doctorate Degrees (DProf) can help the advancement of work-based learning and scholarship based in work settings. Recently, professional doctorate DProf courses have increased worldwide, especially in the U.K. Many professionals are choosing this type of training and postgraduate qualification to optimise their work-based learning (WBL), develop reflective practice skills, and develop strategies for implementing their scholarly works and publications to maximise research findings beyond academic journals. DProf programmes are helping many practitioners move their data from publication to implementation and policymaking to significantly impact society. We provie the pathway for crafting academic DProf scholarship by levering on the understanding of an health problem: borderline personality disorder. We explore how methodology and methods to advance in DProf can also help academics improve their setting of practice and, in this case, public health in general.
