Educational teaching fellows are encouraged to undertake professional development in educational field including attending courses and undertaking further qualifications. Half of the study leave should be allocated towards this and remaining study leave should be used for developing clinical skills. There are appropriate opportunities for free CPD sessions either in UEA or as part of CPD training for tutors in NNUH (4 sessions a year). They are expected to attend at least 2 events per year of the NNUH CPD sessions.
It is expected that an educational appraisal of the fellows should be conducted by either clinical skills director or Clinical Sub dean. It is expected that they will have regular meetings with both.
The interviews will be held via Teams.
