Are you a clinician passionate about clinical safety?
Do you want to use digital AI tools safely?
Do you want to gain expertise within your PCN to approve digital tools?
Would you like to be the point of contact within your PCN as a trained CSO (Clinical Safety Officer)?
In collaboration with Accurx, we are pleased to announce that registrations for a free CSO training workshop are now open! Led by our very own Dr Osman Bhatti, the session will set out to enable practices and PCNs to use digital tools with confidence.

​We are offering this funded training to one representative per PCN to ensure clinical safety expertise is distributed across the region. If your PCN already has a registered CSO you may not be eligible for this training.
​Those who have already completed CSO training are not eligible to attend.

​The course will include:

​​Pre-course e-learning module
​​Highly contextualised content for clinical safety governance in primary care
​​A system-wide view, not exclusively focused on Accurx
​​How to complete a clinical safety assessment for Accurx Scribe
​​Opportunity to join a WhatsApp community of CSOs for continued peer to peer support

​​Please note – In order to become a Clinical Safety Officer you must have:

​​Professional Registration with a current, valid registration with a UK professional regulatory body, such as the General Medical Council (GMC) or the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC).
​​Clinical Training & Experience in a clinical role relevant to the specific area of the digital systems you would be assessing
Confirmed Support from your PCN CD/NM

​​Accurx will cover the cost of the training session; however, this does not include travel expenses to the location.

Investing in You: Quality Improvement Training
2026-05-07 13:30 - 16:30 | Online Session, United Kingdom
on 7th May, in-person at Whitechapel Town Hall.
Why invest in your development now?
The NHS landscape is ever-changing – perhaps now more than ever (although to be fair we’ve been saying that for 77 years…). With constant shifts in policy, structure and demand, one of the best investments you can make is in yourself. Learning new skills doesn’t just help you do your job better; it rewires how your brain approaches problems, opens new neural pathways, and builds resilience for whatever comes next.
Quality Improvement offers a structured, creative way to face challenges. It teaches you to test multiple potential solutions, learn from what works and what doesn’t, and share those lessons with others. The beauty of QI is that you use data to prove you’re heading in the right direction – no guesswork, just evidence.

What makes this training different?
There are many QI training programmes out there. What sets this one apart is the learning experience itself. We have been supporting the NHS in North East London for 12 years now – we know you, we know (or are!) our patients, we know the patch. Participants will be divided into small groups of around 10 people, each supported by a dedicated facilitator. This means real conversation, tailored guidance, and the space to ask questions that matter to your specific context.
EQUIP has also been building deep skills and experience in QI applied to population health. We’ve explored this field from angles you may not have encountered before – and we’re confident you’ll take away something new, a fresh lens on improvement that you can apply straight away.

“Learning is not about filling a bucket, but lighting a fire.”
— W.B. Yeats

Your thinking is still yours
In a world where AI can help us refine an email, polish a report, or even shape a newsletter like this one –your way of thinking remains uniquely yours. Technology can assist, but it cannot replace the creative spark that comes from understanding a problem deeply and imagining new possibilities. QI gives you the tools to channel that creativity into action, and the discipline to learn from every attempt.

Feed your brain. Challenge your assumptions. Join us on 7th May.
