There are several key people who make up the Education Team who support trainees throughout their GP training, such as the GP Training Programme Directors and the Medical Education Team.
The GP Programme Directors oversee all aspects of General Practice training from ST1 to ST3 including Flexible Training (LTFT). They are responsible for Half Day Release Teaching, Integrated Training Post (ITP) weekly tutorials, co-ordination of the Thursday GP Clinical Updates (formerly ST1 and ST2 Learning Sets), managements of all GP training rotations and Trainer and Registrar Groups. The Medical Education Team work closely with Medical Human Resources, the DME and Programme Directors.
