Trainer Standards Update

The GMC released their implementation plan for the recognition and approval of trainers in August 2012, which requires LETBs (i.e. HENW) as Learning Organisations to formally recognise trainers in their roles as Clinical and/or Educational Supervisors.  Following the integration of the Mersey and North Western deaneries one framework for the recognition of trainers will apply across HENW to ensure that the GMC standards are fully met by the July 2016 deadline. This includes the implementation of a live, online trainer database to enable LEP’s (Trusts) to record the status of Named Clinical Supervisors (CS) and Educational Supervisors (ES).  

This is the July edition of the Trainer Standards Update that HENW produced for their Trusts.
