Mental Health commissioning workforce development
Workforce development itself is clearly a local matter for commissioning organisations to support and resource through local mechanisms. This work is to support that local workforce development with national intelligence and through national initiatives which are made available at the local level.
The mental health commissioning workforce survey is the first of its kind in England. It was completed by almost 200 mental health commissioners in England, which we now estimate to be about 61% of the mental health commissioning population. The survey covers all SHAs, although coverage varied between SHAs. The survey report contains the results and key messages which may assist organisations in their own local planning and development.
Royal College of Psychiatrists Training modules
The development of this product has been led by the Royal College with support from the Programme. The modules will bring together MH Commissioners and their Providers to learn about the commissioning process in a joint learning set model.
