Edward Jenner - Advanced
Did you know that the NHS Leadership Academy’s Edward Jenner programme now has an Advanced level? For those who have successfully completed Launch and Foundations, Advanced is the next stage of the leadership journey.
Edward Jenner Advanced will enable participants to build on what they have already learned from the Edward Jenner programme and can lead to an Academy award upon completion.
Where Launch and Foundations focuses on the individual as leader, Advanced looks ‘up and out’, with a view to getting the most out of a leader’s people and an understanding of how both leader and team fit into the broader system. The aim is an increased understanding of the system, an increased ability to impact positively in the system and a greater understanding of how to unlock a team’s potential and performance.
Advanced will be delivered using a blended approach of on-line learning and 3 face to face workshops over 3 months with 2 options to choose from: Building or Exploration. The cost for the programme is £350.
Building provides you with a range of new leadership areas to consider. There will be access to videos, readings and online discussions to learn from. We’ll be helping you to experience some of the principles described in the online content and understand what they mean for you in your situation.
Exploration looks at the same areas but instead you will explore your own organisation in more depth, using a structured field visit approach and then use the content and workshops to make sense of what you’ve seen and experienced. Also to share your learning from this with other colleagues on the programme.
