Pulse is pleased to announce a series of ten one-day practice based commissioning masterclass events in conjunction with the NAPC, aimed at GPs, practice managers, PBC consortium board members, PBC managers and PCT commissioning leads.

These regional events which are running between October 2009 and January 2010 are designed to give an in-depth understanding of the barriers holding up practice based commissioning and provide practical skills to clear the path to commissioning success.

The programme for each region have been tailored to meet local learning needs and are developed based on results of detailed interviews with practice based commissioners.

The four skills based programmes include:

• Data: How to get it and how to use it
• Key PBC stumbling blocks and how to overcome them
• Negotiating and influencing skills to drive forward PBC success
• Making a success of your service re-design

Expert tutors will provide top tips and advice, plus best-practice case studies to help gain clarity about the keys to PBC success, and practical workshops will give the opportunity to put new skills into action.

Delegates will also receive a copy of all the relevant modules from the NAPC's acclaimed PBC toolkit along with an attendance certificate.

TEVA UK Limited and the Department of Health are sponsoring these events which means the first 50 tickets are at a reduced rate of £85 + VAT.
