The role of a clinical director

'The role of a clinical director' is a 1-day workshop for aspiring and recently appointed clinical directors.

Are you looking to become a clinical director? Or perhaps you have been appointed to a clinical director role in the last two years and would value informed discussion, information and advice about tackling the everyday issues you face in the role.

This intensive 1-day workshop has been designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills to deal with the complex issues you face as a clinical director. From coping with winter pressures, to writing short business cases, and outlining your role within the appraisal and revalidation process.

We run this course in person to maximise the advantages of group working and networking. Lunches and breaks give you time to share experiences with colleagues from across the UK and with the course faculty. We deliver the course in both our Liverpool and London venues.

What will you learn?

The workshop will offer advice on balancing the tensions between your leadership and clinical responsibilities, as well as strategies on how best to manage this challenging role. Interactive sessions will be facilitated by an RCP teaching faculty comprising highly-experienced medical and clinical directors, NHS managers and medical educationalists.

The course covers:

defining the role
appraisal and revalidation
job planning
risk management
finance
coping with winter pressures
human factors.
