Healthcare management training

Medicare Management Academy UK will expand on the work of its sister company, Dentac Limited, which focuses on training in the dental industry.

Glenys Bridges, who has considerable experience of training within the healthcare sector, will be running training events for Medicare Management Academy UK, beginning initially with specially developed BTEC management courses.

Glenys says: "Medicare Management Academy will enable managers from all healthcare sectors to develop their management skills and techniques and so gain similar benefits to our participants from within dentistry. Such skills are particularly critical for managers and Registered Managers in healthcare business that must meet Care Quality Commission requirements."

The first Medicare Management Academy courses for which recruitment has begun are:

BTEC Level 3 Management Award – first one-day workshop March 4 in London

BTEC Level 4 Management Diploma – first one-day workshop on April 15 in London

Successful completion of the Level 3 Management Award course is an entry requirement for the Level 4 Management Diploma – the latter widely considered as an essential qualification for those in healthcare management roles.
