Inclusive career development programmes

The GMC is committed to fostering an inclusive, caring and learning environment where all colleagues are able to thrive and grow their career. To benchmark this we’ve introduced an inclusivity index as part of our People survey and we’ve set ourselves race equality targets to eliminate differentials in recruitment and representation across role levels, and in retention, progression, pay and employee engagement by 2026. We’re excited to be looking for an organisation to work with us and our diversity networks in building upon our existing learning and development offering, to ensure everyone is given the opportunity to progress at the GMC regardless of background, beliefs, or identity. We’re looking for an organisation with considerable experience in designing, developing and delivering courses and content to support the career development and progression of individuals and groups. Our research suggests colleagues would like the option to pick and choose from a variety session formats and titles based on their career aims, their skills and their experiences. This will potentially include, but not be limited to, group sessions, 121 coaching/decompression slots, networking and keynote speaker events, action learning sets and mentoring opportunities. We are holding supplier meetings on 13 October 2022. Suppliers will have the opportunity to provide a short virtual presentation on approaches we could take, the benefits they have delivered to other organisations and how these might benefit the GMC. We will be inviting representatives from our diversity networks to join us and there will also be chance for question and answer. Each meeting will last a total of 30-minutes. To book a time slot please email procurement@gmc-uk.org. We have limited spaces available and will operate on a first come first served basis.
