Our Story

The Health Professional Academy is a free online learning channel for professionals involved in antenatal, postnatal, paediatric and pharmacy care.

All of our eLearning modules are written in partnership with leading academics who support our three academies. Information is up to date and in line with guidelines from the NHS, NICE and relevant Royal Colleges, as well as Unicef’s Baby Friendly Initiative. What’s more, they’re all free - thanks to sponsorship from carefully selected health and pharmaceutical brands.

All of our free CPD modules can be used towards revalidation with the Nursing & Midwifery Council (NMC), the General Medical Council (GMC) and the General Pharmaceutical Council (GPhC).

The Health Professional Academy is brought to you by Lifecycle Marketing, the publishers of Emma’s Diary and parenting website, Families. We’ve been a trusted partner in healthcare education for more than 26 years, working alongside professional health bodies and Royal Colleges.
