Professional Skills Programme
The Severn Deanery, working with Directors of Medical Education,
has prepared a modular programme of Professional and Generic Skills
courses, which covers topics such as leadership skills and change
management. Specialist Trainees should ensure that they complete this
programme.
The training across the patch is being coordinated into a single
transferable programme. There are 10 modules which have been split
into early, mid and late years of training and include the following
topics:
- Module 1 Introduction to the Programme and Learning Styles
- Module 2 How Understanding Personality Types can improve
communication
- Module 3 Career Management
- Module 4 Patient Safety, Governance and Risk Management
- Module 5 Introduction to Medical Ethics and Law
- Module 6 Becoming a Teacher
- Module 7 Leadership and Management
- Module 8 Understanding the Health and Social Care Economy
- Module 9 Managing change and Transitions
- Module 10 Action Learning Sets
The programme is primary designed for doctors in training working
within the Severn Deanery’s jurisdiction.
It is co-ordinated by the Severn Deanery and delivered locally via
the Academies (a network of Learning Centres based on major healthcare
sites). There may be variation in style and method of delivery across
Academies but the programme will be evaluated annually to ensure
quality and overall consistency.
However, the long term aim is for the programme to be
multi-professional and other Health Care Professionals at a similar
level are therefore welcome.
We have also commissioned three of the modules as e-learning from
Doctors.net. These are:
- Understanding the Health and Social Care Economy
- Patient Safety, Governance and Risk
- Medical Ethics and the Law
If you are registered with Doctors.net, the courses will already be
available for you to access. We would be grateful if you could fill in
the short questionnaire from Doctors.net after completing a module –
this will help us understand your views on e-learning.
Registration, administration and access to e-learning is
coordinated on the Managed Learning Environment (MLE)
http://lms.e2train.com/nhssw where you can see when and where modules
are taking place in each Academy and apply for a place online, and
also carry out e-learning. If you do not have a login, please contact
Barbara Burgess (details below) who will require your date of birth in
order to add your name to the system and issue you with a username.
The first three modules are generally intended for Years 1&2, the
second three modules for years 3&4 and the next three for years 5-6.
Action learning sets are likely to span a number of years. Click the
adjacent link to see the intended learning outcomes for each module.
