The continued learning opportunities of our AHP workforce is of vital importance, in consolidating the services we deliver today, and ensuring our teams are enabled to deliver the services and roles we aspire to in the future.
The NHSGGC AHP Learning and Development Strategic Framework has been designed to support all AHP staff in NHSGGC to access educational opportunities. This being at all levels of practice across the career framework, from Health Care Support Worker to Advanced and Consultant level of practice.
The framework highlights that all staff will have equal access to ongoing learning, training and development within their role. Recognising that AHP capabilities are required of all staff across the four pillars of practice. These being clinical practice, facilitation of learning, leadership and evidence, research and development (including service improvement).
Professional and Service Leads developed the framework following an AHP staff communication exercise. The framework is underpinned by the four pillars of practice and it is aligned to local and national policy drivers. The framework is accessible, easy to understand and key in supporting AHPs to take ownership of their learning and development. It is a live resource to support meaningful role and career conversations.
