Programmes

These are programmes that may be relevant to you in your development journey.

NHS Leadership Academy

Develop new skills and discover new ways to improve your experience of work with short guides developed by experts. Open to anyone in health and care.

NHS Confederation

The COVID-19 pandemic has laid bare the stark differences experienced by people working in the NHS and those receiving health and care services. Inequality is at its root. Being able to understand the inequality challenges faced by others brings out leadership strength and improves quality of care for all.

That’s why we’ve developed our EDI programme – strategic support to equip and enable healthcare leaders to tackle inequalities. We work with you to realise equitable outcomes for patients and service users, and to move towards workforce equality.

Offering practical guidance, insightful resources and unrivalled opportunities to connect and network, we support you to promote inclusive leadership capability, have confidence in those with lived experience, and to develop your people and leadership pipeline for the future.

NHS Leadership Academy

The Foundations in System Leadership; collaborating for health and care programme is open to all colleagues working in health, care, local authorities and voluntary sector partnerships, who have a desire to improve the way they collaborate across organisational, professional and hierarchical boundaries to design and deliver better health outcomes for the communities they serve.

The King's Fund

The Covid-19 pandemic has placed unprecedented pressures on the health and social care workforce and is now compounding longstanding inequalities and challenges among staff. The role of a manager and leader in protecting, supporting and promoting the health and wellbeing of staff has, therefore, never been more necessary and urgent.

In our free, online, three-week course you’ll develop your understanding of your own health and wellbeing and learn to better lead and support your colleagues, team and organisation.
