Leaders graduate through New Hospital Programme
50 project leaders have graduated from the Project Leadership Programme at Cranfield School of Management through the New Hospital Programme.
Nearly 50 senior leaders from the programme team and hospital trusts in England formally graduated early this week.
The leaders from the New Hospital Programme have been studying for a year to improve their skills and expertise to ensure patients benefit from new state of the art facilities as quickly as possible.
Health Minister, Lord Markham, said: "Congratulations to all those graduating from Cranfield School of Management who now have even more skills and expertise to deliver on our commitment to build 40 hospitals by 2030, which is expected to be backed by more than £20 billion of new investment in hospital infrastructure.
"In the long term, our new standardised design means we can rapidly replicate new hospitals across the country, helping speed up construction and improving services for patients as we continue to work to cut waiting lists."
Senior responsible owner of the New Hospital Programme, Natalie Forrest said: "Congratulations to all who have passed this course. I am delighted that we were able to support so many project directors across England working on New Hospital Programme and trust schemes. This is a challenging course and has involved much hard work and dedication on behalf of all the graduates.
"One of the New Hospital Programme’s key objectives is to build the foundations for an enduring national capability for enhanced healthcare infrastructure delivery, developing leaders in this field is a step towards achieving this. Well done everyone!"
