General Practice Improvement Leads programme

The General Practice Improvement Leads programme is designed for those working in general practice, including GPs, practice managers, nurses, reception managers and senior administrators. It is a successful personal development programme to build confidence and skills for leading service redesign in your practice or federation.

The programme,  from NHS England’s Time for Care team, incorporates interactive training workshops, personal reading and reflection, and action learning as participants lead a change project in their own workplace. Participants gain new perspectives, skills and confidence in using improvement science in general practice, and leading colleagues and teams through change. The approach has been successful with general practice clinicians and managers of widely varying experience, from those new in post to very experienced staff.

Made up of six days in total, the programme is modular based and completed over three to four months. No prior knowledge of managing change or quality improvement is needed.

Registration for the next South East cohort programme (held in London) is now open.
