- Improvement Coaches Programme -
We launched our new Improvement Coaches Programme at Mid Cheshire in March 2023 and we'll be releasing new dates to begin in May 2024 very shortly! This interactive Improvement Coaches Programme will build on the knowledge and skills gained through the Improvement Champions course and advance improvement knowledge and capability, whilst also developing skills and confidence in the art of improvement coaching and facilitation to support others leading improvement projects. We can't wait to support our new Improvement Coaches over the coming months as they complete the training and begin coaching others around improvement at the Trust.
