Ensuring we continue to build a diverse pipeline of future leaders with the right skills, values, and competencies required for the future is vital to the delivery of health and care services.
The Graduate Management Training Scheme (GMTS) would not continue without the support of programme and placement managers.
To get the best from their trainee(s), it is vital that programme and placement managers can commit the time and resource to support their trainee, ensure they are being challenged in the work they are undertaking and are supported to grow.
Our dedicated GMTS team are here to support host organisations, programme and placement managers with training and resources and to answer queries or step in if there are challenges or concerns.

Programme and Placement Manager Training Sessions
It is essential that all managers attend training to gain an understanding of the Scheme components and the expectations of their role.
