Leadership and early career work
Leadership development of healthcare science staff is an important component of professional development. Wherever possible we have utilised generic training materials developed for other NHS professions by NES.
Early Career Leadership and Management Development
Our 2012 Early Career programme introduces leadership and management issues and is intended to foster a 'future leaders' mindset. Delivered as part of a cohort, it involves five one-day sessions currently over 7 months. Venues: Dundee, Glasgow and Edinburgh.
Early career staff are: registered Practitioner-level staff with up to a maximum of 3 years post registration experience; Clinical Scientist trainees at year 3 or 4 or those registered and at very early post registration; and those HCS staff supported by NES in 2011 via the Postgraduate Scientist Common Core List

2012: Refreshing Leadership is for colleagues who are beyond the HCS Early Career stage and perhaps beginning to acquire some managerial responsibilities, are involved in local HCS committees, or participate in other NHS Board groups. A key purpose behind the programme is to foster some self-development through action learning and to 'take the lead' in running the final Open Session. Venues: Inverness, Glasgow and Edinburgh.
