The Advanced Clinical Practice Academy (ACP Academy) was founded by two senior clinicians — Thomas, an Advanced Clinical Practitioner with a paramedic background spanning urgent care, general practice, and front line emergency care; and Sarah, a seasoned doctor with extensive experience in Emergency Medicine, trauma care, and clinical leadership.
Their careers have evolved across frontline services, from community settings to high-acuity hospital environments, bridging the gap between traditional professional roles and the expanding world of advanced clinical practice. Both have led teams, taught postgraduate learners, contributed to national clinical strategy, and mentored colleagues stepping into senior roles. They know first-hand the pressure of complex decision-making, the reality of lone working, and the nuance of multidisciplinary collaboration.
What unites them and underpins ACP Academy is a shared frustration with the lack of inclusive, role-relevant education.
Too often, resources are written for medical students, with other professions treated as an afterthought. Thomas and Sarah built ACP Academy to change that: to bring clarity, clinical precision, and lived experience into one trusted platform.
They do not see ACP Academy as an opportunity to showcase themselves: Their priority is making sure that you — the ACP, the trainee, the nurse, the pharmacist, the paramedic, the physio feel equipped and empowered to thrive, no matter your setting or seniority.
"When we speak about clinical decision-making, leadership, and confidence under pressure, it’s not theory. It’s experience".
ACP Academy has been created BY people like you, FOR people like you!.
Real clinicians. Real experience. Real-world support.
ACP Academy exists to help you become the clinician others turn to - without the overwhelm.
