Events are provided by a team of accredited trainers all with significant track records of experience in the NHS capital investment business case process, aimed at delivering the core syllabus content set in an NHS context.
Training is via an online platform designed to support effective learning outcomes, be accessible to participants and flexible to accommodate individual learning requirements. This has received excellent feedback from delegates, who have consistently reported positive learning outcomes.
We provide the syllabus and added NHS specific context via 'NHS Better Business Cases™ Foundation and Practitioner Masterclasses', allowing time to cover core content and to relate theory to the practical experience of candidates working in the NHS environment.

- Officers involved in the scrutiny and review of investment proposals.
