In the ever-evolving NHS landscape, cultivating a versatile and adept workforce is essential. Our session sheds light on the pressing need for upskilling, ensuring specialist and non-specialist professionals alike are aptly equipped to harness the power of data to future-proof their careers. Through tangible NHS case studies, Kirstie and Matthew will showcase how the transformative power of upskilling can positively impact patient and citizen outcomes across the country, in addition to identifying cost-saving opportunities. We will explore how apprenticeships sit at the heart of upskilling efforts, how to run skills assessments to understand your organisation’s data capabilities and uncover gaps, and ensure you’re equipped with ways to strategically tap into your unused apprenticeship levy to kickstart transformational programmes within your teams.
