Core professional capabilities development training programmes

Our Core Professional Capabilities workshops are carefully developed to enhance essential skills in alignment with the broader GMC Professional Capabilities Framework.

About our core professional capabilities development training programmes

Our programmes cater to local employed doctors, postgraduate trainees / residents, SAS doctors, allied health professionals, and senior clinicians, focusing on pivotal areas such as advanced communication, ethics, research, patient safety, legal considerations, and risk management.

Participants will engage in interactive and hands-on learning experiences, deepening their understanding of these key areas and improving their professional competence. Expert facilitators guide delegates through practical exercises and collaborative activities, addressing current NHS challenges and trends.
