Your Role in Training:
We rely heavily on the managers of our training practices and recognise that they play a very important role in training the Gps of the future. There are a number of ways in which PMs are involved in training:
- Employment of our trainees – All arranged through the Single Lead Employer
- Teaching – our trainees can benefit hugely from tutorials on your areas of expertise, including management, finances and leadership
- Practice approval – the deanery involves practice managers in visiting teams to assess the suitability of practices for training. These visits can be fun and informative, an ideal opportunity for sharing good practice
- Creating a learning environment – the success of a training practice depends on the organisational infrastructure and the team approach to learning and change.
