Commissioning Course
Our popular commissioning course supports commissioners in health and social care organisations to implement the national agenda and develop good commissioning practice. It will enable you to understand the commissioning process and commission value-for-money services.
We are delivering this short course as either 8 half day sessions online or 4 full day face to face sessions. Either way you will get the same, good quality group learning experience from the same tutors at the same price of £850 per person. Download more information about the Commissioning Course.
