NHS Wales are seeking proposals to design and deliver a part time post graduate qualification (diploma) in health planning for NHS Wales . This programme must be based on the latest research and combine theory, up to date knowledge of the NHS in Wales and the future challenges facing leaders in the public sector in Wales. It is proposed that there will be 25 participants per annum for years 1 and 2. It will be the responsibility of the health boards and project manager to ensure that the total number of participants on each module remains 25 in years 1 and 2. In the optional years the NHS Organisations are committed to recruiting up to a maximum of 25.
