Learn, Earn, Return and Excel
The Apollo ICFP is carefully structured to ensure
that doctors get mentorship, world-class specialist clinical exposure and
hands-on experience in providing the highest standards of healthcare. The
programme is a collaboration between AEUK, Global Training and Education Centre
(GTEC) at Wrightington, Wigan and Leigh Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation
Trust, and Edge Hill University, UK.
The Apollo ICFP is the latest initiative under the
“Apollo Knowledge” umbrella which is the Apollo Group’s skilling, training,
education, and resourcing arm. This is part of AEUK’s Global Workforce
Development (GWD) initiative, an education, skilling and placement programme
for healthcare professionals, helping them broaden their horizons and receive
training and work experience across geographies.
Mr. Sivaramakrishnan Venkateswaran, CEO, Apollo
Knowledge said, “This is part of our Global Workforce Development (GWD)
initiative to enable and provide education, training and recruitment job
opportunities across geographies for healthcare professionals so that they get
trained and upskilled and add value to themselves and their own healthcare
systems”.
Professor Raj Murali MBE, FRCS (Eng), FRCS Ed, FRCS
(Tr & Orth), Clinical Director, Global Training and Education Centre said,
said, “I am looking forward, greatly, to welcoming the newest cohort of Doctors
to the ICFP programme, particularly so across our specialties at WWL. The NHS
is a wonderful institution in which to gain invaluable work experience from
world-class mentors, and the doctors on the course will certainly benefit from
their time with us.”
Professor Clare Austin, Pro Vice Chancellor, Dean of
the Faculty of Health, Social Care and Medicine, Edge Hill University said,
“This is an important opportunity for the Master of Surgery and Master of
Medicine programmes to support the recruitment and training of international
doctors as part of our long-standing a learn, earn, return and excel scheme.”
