NHS Wales and Welsh Government sought proposals to design and deliver a part time post graduate diploma in planning. The programme will 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.
The objective of the Diploma will be:

- The development of a talent pipeline for leadership (director, assistant director and national)
- The professionalisation of planning as a career within NHS Wales
- To develop strong planning skills across Wales in organisations to deliver better health outcomes. It is expected that by creating a strong cohort of planners at a mid to senior level, skills will be available through the organisation, delivering improved planning skills at all levels.
- To provide standardisation of skills, so that capacity and capability of senior planning teams is consistently enhanced.
- Improve the quality of integrated term plans e.g. IMTPS, delivery strategies etc.
- To develop a broad understanding of interdependencies between planning the service, workforce and finance.
