Our Workforce Vision
Coventry and Warwickshire Pathology Services (CWPS) are committed to a proactive approach to training and development for all grades of staff whilst recognising that training is an integral part of the Quality Management System.
Through the implementation of the CWPS Strategy, we are able to demonstrate a commitment to training and professional development which supports current national standards and requirements as set out by Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and Medicine and Healthcare Regulatory Agency (MHRA), Institute of Biomedical Science (IBMS) and the National School of Healthcare Science (NSHCS) and other professional bodies. This will ensure a skilled, flexible workforce able to maintain and support high quality services.
The fundamental objectives of all CWPS training and development will be:
- To ensure that all staff have the appropriate skills and knowledge to deliver a high-quality service and to ensure that the services meet their desired objectives
- To ensure that all training and development is effectively targeted and appropriate in accordance with workforce and business planning whilst evolving to incorporate the new requirements
- To ensure that all staff have equal access to training and development opportunities which reflect the diverse nature of the workforce and service users
- To promote and encourage a culture of life-long learning through the Continuing Professional Development (CPD).
