Following the success of last year's inaugural SAS leadership development programme, NI SAS Leads are delighted to announce the release
of Department of Health funding to support SAS clinicians' development for 2021/22. COVID challenges continue in the Health Service and
SAS doctors and dentists have again proven their flexibility to deliver excellent service in difficult times. The new contract implementation has
highlighted the importance of CPD opportunities specifically to support SAS doctors in meeting the generic capabilities framework.
This year, we are again offering the SAS leadership fundamentals programme - Chrysalis, which was highly valued by those who attended last
year. In addition, we have worked with the HSC Leadership Centre to design a series of bespoke workshops aimed at helping SAS doctors and
dentists meet the generic capabilities framework for the new SAS contracts. Interview skills courses will be of interest to those considering
application for new Specialist or other posts. The Leadership Centre has also planned a series of workshops and masterclasses, inviting
leaders from healthcare and other industries to inspire us.
We would like to express our thanks to Diane Taylor, Fidelma Carolan, Dr Claire Lundy and team from the HSC Leadership Centre for
developing another exciting programme for SAS doctors.
We very much hope that all SAS doctors and dentists will avail of these opportunities for training. There is a wide range of different
opportunities available, relevant to your working practice, whatever your level of experience. We are confident that they will benefit you
personally and professionally and enable you to influence your teams and enhance services.
Priority will be given to substantive SAS doctors and dentists who have not had opportunity to take part in the 2020/21 programme.
We would invite you to read the brochure and course narratives carefully for further information.
Best wishes,
Dr Claire Brady. SHSCT SAS Lead
