New cohort starts Stepping Up programme

January 20, 2020

Our latest cohort of BME colleagues started the Stepping Programme last week. The first part of the programme was hosted at the Education Centre at Sandwell Hospital. The latest cohort is made of 39 clinical and non-clinical colleagues from across the Trust.

The programme is run by The NHS Leadership Academy and is aimed at band 5, 6 and 7 colleagues who self-define as being from black, asian or minority-ethnic backgrounds aims to develop senior leaders in the NHS who will lead effectively, creating and embedding organisational inclusive cultures whilst also looking to create a deeper level of understanding to help change take place.

Good luck to all the colleagues on the programme!
