This RSPH Level 4 Diploma is designed for those wishing to become Associate Anatomical Pathology Technologists. The qualification consists of five knowledge units and five competency units and can only be taken after the successful completion of the RSPH Level 3 Diploma in Healthcare Science (Anatomical Pathology Technology) qualification; this is normally taken by trainee Anatomical Pathology Technologists and also consists of five knowledge and five competency units.
The competency units are undertaken in the workplace, so the qualification is only suitable for those employed as Assistant Anatomical Pathology Technologists.
The qualification recognises the unique role performed by Anatomical Pathology Technologists as part of the Life Science workforce, specifically their place of work being a mortuary rather than a laboratory and their need to interact with bereaved members of the public.
