  • Organizational Partnerships

Background:

  • In-house education courses within NHS organizations often lack formal accreditation.
  • Continuing Professional Development (CPD) frameworks require structured and recognized educational programs.
  • Partnerships between healthcare providers and higher education institutions can bridge this gap.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the process of formally accrediting existing in-house education courses within a CPD framework.
  • To explore a collaborative model between NHS organizations and a higher education institution (HEI).
  • To identify challenges and strategies in developing flexible, work-based education.

Main Methods:

  • Case study analysis of a partnership between two Lothian NHS organizations and an HEI.
