PG Cert in Workplace Based Postgraduate Medical Education

All HEE NW funded places for 2018/2019 have now been taken.  Edge Hill University are offering a waiting list; please contact clinicaleducation@edgehill.ac.uk for more information.

 

HEE Funded Module 1 Places

All trainees need to develop their portfolios using course attendance and other evidence to demonstrate that they meet the required standards to be a Clinical Supervisor for future consultant practice.  Each year HEE offers one year group of hospital based higher specialty trainees the opportunity of a funded place to complete module 1 (CPD4706) of this course.  The eligible year group has been identified by the Training Programme Director as the most appropriate time within the training programme to undertake the course; please see the HEE Funded Places: Specialty Year Group List for the eligible year group for each specialty. There are two intakes per year, one in September and one in February.

Please be aware that the cancellation policy applies for funding for places on this programme. 

Trainees who are eligible for a funded place will be contacted directly by EHU no later than August.  If you think that you are eligible but have not received an email from EHU please contact clinicaleducation@edgehill.ac.uk.

More information about the course can be found on Edge Hill University's website.

Due to large numbers and the complexity of the administrative process this will be the only opportunity to be funded through the programme by HEE. Unfortunately individual requests/swaps between academic years will not be possible without one of the following extenuating circumstances:

• Maternity / Paternity / Sick / Special Leave
• Out of Programme
• Pre-booked holiday
• Other courses / exam preparation at similar time
