Midlands Training Programme Director Development
Introduction
Dear Colleague
We are committed to providing induction, development and support to our Training Programme Directors (TPDs). This brochure offers an overview of the offer and booking details. We are always keen to hear from TPDs
Our aim is to develop a robust group of senior educators in their role as Training Programme Director, to facilitate the running of training programmes in the region, and to help them develop their careers as senior leaders in education and training.
Our plan is for each new TPD to attend the initial induction session, followed by two regular updates each year. In addition, a series of CPD sessions around a specific theme will be arranged, to enhance their skills.
Sessions are currently being delivered online, but some of the CPD sessions may be face-to-face.
We offer three different aspects to our development:
-
TPD ‘Crash’ Induction – held regularly so new TPDs can book in shortly after commencing in role (we recommend that all new TPDs attend this once).
-
TPD Update session – held twice each year (we recommend that all TPDs should attend both events).
-
TPD Development sessions – multiple sessions each year (we recommend that TPDs should attend each of these over the tenure of their secondment).
We value feedback, so please help us to help you. Share your feedback with us via the Future Workforce team mailbox – England.FutureWorkforce@nhs.net.
Thank you.
