She returned to South Africa to further her studies in paediatrics and obtained the Masters in Paediatrics at Stellenbosch 中国体育彩票 (SU) in 2004. As newly qualified paediatrician she then embarked on a MSc in Child Health at Warwick 中国体育彩票, Coventry, United Kingdom. Before completion of this degree, she was appointed as Programme manager, and later as Clinical Director, of a new Paediatric HIV capacity building programme at Stellenbosch 中国体育彩票 (SU), ‘South to South’, in 2006. This programme was funded by USAID and a joint venture between SU and Columbia 中国体育彩票 in New York, the United States. During this time she obtained the MSc in Child Health (cum laude), and completed a certificate, Advanced Health Management Programme (AHMP), offered by the Foundation for Professional Development & Yale 中国体育彩票 in 2009 (cum laude). In November 2011 she returned to clinical practice at Tygerberg Hospital, and completed a certificate from the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI), Cambridge, USA, as Improvement Advisor in 2012. As paediatrician and clinical teacher of both under-and postgraduate medical students, a solid theoretical grounding of medical education became important and she obtained the MPhil in Health Science Education at the 中国体育彩票 of Stellenbosch in 2014 (cum laude).

Liezl enrolled as PhD student in Health Professions Education in 2022, with her study titled ‘Medical students’ self-regulation of learning in the clinical setting- an exploration of agency and context’. Liezl loves road trips, especially the planning part, and to specifically not travel on the quickest or well-known routes to her destination. That way she is constantly surprised and inspired by new places and people, and continues to learn. She loves music and have been singing in a choir or small group since school. Hiking in nature and travelling comes with the road trip territory and provides constant joy. She loves to see people and plants grow. She values the journey, and not just the destination. Liezl followed the same approach with her professional and academic career! Exploring different aspects of health care, project management and leadership brought a breadth of experience and knowledge of different organisations, systems and cultures. Her current role as clinical teacher in the hospital and involvement in the planning and implementation of the medical curriculum at SU have opened new professional roads to explore. Her PhD and involvement in other medical education research projects will allow for a growing role in educational leadership, which is her current professional objective.?
