Phoenix GP Programme starting virtually in May 2022 - APPLICATIONS NOW CLOSED

 We are excited to announce that a second cohort of a fully funded, virtual GP Career Development & Leadership programme is coming to Herefordshire and Worcestershire starting in May 2022.

The Phoenix GP programme is a career and skills development programme specifically targeting GPs who are more than 3 years post CCT and those who have the potential to remain in practice for at least another 10 years. It provides a series of 6 evening sessions over 6 months for a cohort of up to 30 participants, balancing a series of talks from inspirational GPs with dedicated skills workshops developed by GP Leads from the Time for Care team to focus on some of the challenges faced by mid-career GPs. These include topics such as managing change, quality improvement, engagement & influencing people and facilitating online meetings.

The programme is free to attend and delivered virtually. All sessions are Thursday evenings from 7pm-9pm. The programme is supported nationally by NHSE and RCGP and is funded locally by the CCG with support from the LMC.
