General Practice Nursing Leadership Fundamentals Modules

The three modules are accessible at no charge to all GPNs and are mapped against the Primary Care and General Practice Nursing Career and Core Capabilities Framework  . Access the modules now on the Leadership Learning Zone—just select your region and create an account https://leadershipnhs.uk/

The Managers Toolbox:  Strategies for People, Processes & Problem Solving – New events added!

We are excited to bring a new range of development sessions targeted at existing health and care managers.

The first three sessions are now available to book; additional sessions will be added which will explore aspects of project management, effective delegation and time management. This is not a rigidly structured programme; and the sessions can be accessed in any order.

These are open to all line managers working at any banding, or in any organisation type across the North East & Yorkshire region. The intended audience is those who are established as a manager (around 12 months working at this level as a minimum), and looking for ways to increase their skill set and impact.

The Managers Toolbox will also have a dedicated page on the website. Available sessions will be listed in the upcoming events section below or within our events page on our website, along with a regularly changing range of resources to support learning and development.
