OLIVER MCGOWAN TIER 2 TRAINING SESSIONS – NOW OPEN FOR BOOKING

NEL now have Tier 2 Oliver McGowan Sessions available for booking across the system!

The initial tranche of sessions begin from the 21st November and go on until the end of January and will be hosted at various trust sites. Further sessions will be released for booking in the new year.

To clarify, every session is open for any eligible member of staff working in NEL NHS organisations regardless of where the session is hosted, so we encourage staff to book onto whichever sessions are most convenient for them. Eg if a session is hosted at Homerton and a member of staff from NELFT wants to attend it, that is absolutely fine.

All of the sessions can be found HERE so please promote these to your staff.

For enquiries, please contact rob.brooks@nhs.net.
