    Productivity expectations from NHS management can negatively impact continuing education and training. Increased information sharing between educators and managers is vital to prevent viewing training solely as a cost-saving measure for staff development.

    Area of Science:

    • Healthcare Education
    • Organizational Management
    • Continuing Professional Development

    Background:

    • Post-basic and continuing education are traditionally aligned with organizational needs.
    • National Health Service (NHS) local management imposes productivity expectations on these training systems.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To examine the consequences of productivity expectations on NHS continuing education and training.
    • To advocate for improved information flow between educators and managers.

    Main Methods:

    • Qualitative analysis of the impact of management directives on training programs.
    • Literature review on staff development models in healthcare.

    Main Results:

    • Productivity targets can lead to a reductionist approach to staff training.
