Action Learning Sets

The one-day leadership programme will be followed by a 90-minute virtual action learning set two months later, to share a real-world challenge and receive supportive coaching from your peers, guided by an expert facilitator.

Action learning sets will be in smaller groups and will take place around 2 months after your training session.

Completion of the action learning set is required to receieve your certificate.

Who is the programme for?

The Leadership Programme has been created for current and aspiring leaders within CRFs.

We deliver the programme to specific staff groups at a time, so that staff in similar roles can network face to face and work through similar challenges during the programme.

We will continue to deliver an annual programme for new CRF Managers, and roll out the programme to other staff groups in the future, including senior nurses.
