    Abstract

    THIS paper draws upon the findings of an evaluation and programme review of some of the professional development activities supported by the Health Education Council/Health Education Authority during the period 1986-89. The evaluation, based at Bristol Polytechnic, used a variety of methods to evaluate a set of activities consisting of the Certificate, Diploma and Masters courses supported by HEC/HEA and the Academic Lecturer scheme. The research team concluded that, despite the strengths of individual programme components, the overall provision for professional development in health education lacked co herence. They made various recommendations, as outlined in this pa per, and some of these are already being acted upon by the HEA.
