Description

The Authority has a requirement to continue to develop and sustain a cohort of medical appraisers of medical practitioners. To meet professional body regulations, they are to be trained to equivalent standards of NHS England.

The requirement is for up to two medical appraiser training courses to train up to 40 appraisers per year. Trainees may include a combination of new medical appraisers and current medical appraisers who wish to refresh their appraiser training.

Each course must be able accommodate a minimum of 15 trainees and up to a maximum of 25 trainees in a face to face classroom environment.

At the agreement of both the Authority and the Contractor a virtual course may replace a face to face course.

It is anticipated courses will take place in April and September. Locations will be discussed with the Contractor prior to formalising course dates. All venues will be provided by the MOD at no cost to the Contractor. Courses are most likely to be held at Defence Medical Services (Whittington), but if classrooms are unavailable courses could be moved to RAF High Wycombe.
