Educational Supervision Agreement Evaluation Project (EdSA)

This ongoing evaluation focuses on the roll-out of the Educational Supervision Agreement, the Wales Deanery's approach to promoting high standards of postgraduate education and training, and supporting the GMC's implementation plan.

This is a signed agreement between three parties: an individual Educational Supervisor; a Local Education Provider and the Wales Deanery. The implementation and evaluation of the EdSA has been both a pragmatic and innovative response to the task set by the GMC implementation plan.

Dissemination of this of this work has been greeted positively by other health service providers both nationally and internationally. To this end, we have received interest from other parties to replicate our approaches (ie Health Education England).

This project will prepare the EdSA and its evaluation as a replicable model and we will collaborate with HEE regarding their version of the EdSA.

This work will be a comparative analysis of both quantitative and qualitative data.
