Training Courses and LCS requirements

calendar icon

The  A-Z pages below are intended to allow you to explore different training topics, their LCS Learning Outcomes and the contact details of partner organisations who may be able to provide free training. The Surrey Training Hub do not currently directly commission, nor can endorse, any external private (paid for) training providers.  We have instead provided PCNs with a funding allocation for CPD for all staff in General Practice for 2026 and ask PCNs to share peer recommendations on suitable external courses. Alternatively, PCNs can work together to commission a cohort and benefit from economies of scale. The best way to collaborate or to access your CPD funding is via your PCN Educators. When choosing an external private training course please ensure the learning objectives meet your personal learning needs and you have discussed its suitability in line with these and the needs of your service with your supervisor/ employer.

Despite changes to staffing and capacity within the Training Hub team, we are still here to assist with individual queries and signposting to available resources. Please email us for support or to sign up to our newsletter or WhatsApp broadcast groups syheartlandsicb.surreytraininghub@nhs.net.
