Delivered through self-directed learning with access to an interactive forum, our 12-month Leadership and Management Development Programme is designed to equip new, aspiring, and existing leaders in general practice with the knowledge, skills, and theoretical foundations they need to thrive in their current or future roles.
The course spans 12 months in total, divided into four module blocks, each carefully curated to build your knowledge and skills progressively. You’ll have three months to complete each block, giving you plenty of time to explore the content, reflect on your learning, and complete the activities. A written assignment will be due at the end.
The time commitment is approximately 1 day per month on average, which can be broken down however suits you.
We are currently accepting expressions of interest to set a new cohort start for autumn/winter 2026/27.
As the core content is self-directed, you can arrange your time to work on each module block however suits you best within the 12 months duration of the course, spaced as illustrated below. The final deadline for completion and assignment submission will be 12 months from your start date.
Once enrolled and your cohort begins, the core of your learning will take place on our interactive online platform. Here, you’ll explore a series of theory-based modules that are rich with engaging content, practical activities, podcasts, and quizzes designed to help you absorb and apply what you learn. Whatever time of day you prefer to study, the platform is available 24/7—so you can learn when it suits you best.
Throughout you will have access to a live virtual forum. This provides a valuable opportunity to connect with your tutors and fellow learners, ask questions, discuss key topics, and deepen your understanding.
