Introduction<br />
The Learning Team at the Department <strong>of</strong> Health provides learning opportunities primarily to the<br />
Department <strong>of</strong> Health and the Department <strong>of</strong> Social Care but is open to others to attend as they see fit.<br />
The Department‟s Learning Strategy elucidates the following broad directions:<br />
Building on the trend from<br />
to<br />
Fragmented provision<br />
Single pr<strong>of</strong>ession-driven learning<br />
Learning being for pr<strong>of</strong>essional people<br />
Training<br />
Little original research<br />
Learning being separate from practice<br />
Learning achievement being seen as a<br />
private matter<br />
Learning at the beginning <strong>of</strong> a career<br />
Learning at the request <strong>of</strong> staff<br />
Learning mainly through face to face<br />
methods<br />
Developing programmes ourselves to meet<br />
our needs.<br />
Co-ordinated provision<br />
Multi-pr<strong>of</strong>essional learning alongside single<br />
pr<strong>of</strong>ession-driven learning<br />
Learning being for everyone<br />
Learning<br />
More original research<br />
Learning and practice developing hand-inhand<br />
Celebrating learning achievement<br />
Lifelong learning<br />
Learning encouraged by managers<br />
Increasing the amount <strong>of</strong> e-learning<br />
Working closely with other education and<br />
training providers to enhance learning<br />
The Department is committed to the education, training and development <strong>of</strong> its staff in order to achieve<br />
the objectives <strong>of</strong> the Department.<br />
All programmes are designed for multi-pr<strong>of</strong>essional audiences and validated with all pr<strong>of</strong>essional groups<br />
in mind.<br />
It is the desired aim that educational and training experiences are mutually beneficial events for both<br />
those participating and those who plan and deliver the event. Through a process <strong>of</strong> dialogue and<br />
evaluation it is intended to inspire all those involved and other to further participate in learning focuses<br />
on improving the services provided by the Departments.<br />
Staff involved in education and training strive to make available relevant learning opportunities based<br />
on identified needs and current best practice and evidence. They also provide learning resources to<br />
complement individual approaches to learning and the development <strong>of</strong> individual lifelong learning.<br />
The acquisition <strong>of</strong> new learning is intended to impact on skills and attitudes which are transferable into<br />
individual practice environments.<br />
Our educational delivery is captured in essence by the maxim “Lifelong learning through person-centred<br />
development”.<br />
Learning provision is there to enhance service provision and we strive always to make close connections<br />
with the service side <strong>of</strong> the two Departments. Staff members who wish to see new programmes<br />
developed are encouraged to contact any member <strong>of</strong> the Learning Team to discuss their needs and to<br />
assist in the planning <strong>of</strong> programmes to meet them.<br />

Foundation Programme for Junior Hospital Doctors<br />
The 2-year Foundation Programme is an important part <strong>of</strong> the training for newly qualified doctors<br />
(Modernising Medical Careers; http://www.mmc.nhs.uk). The aim <strong>of</strong> the programme is to provide<br />
continuity from medical school through to specialist training. The provision <strong>of</strong> generic training and a<br />
national curriculum ensures that trainees develop essential basic skills suited to the modern healthcare<br />
environment. There is a structured educational programme with workplace-based assessments <strong>of</strong><br />
competence. Full registration with the GMC is achieved after one year, subject to satisfactory review by<br />
an external assessor. The second year provides exposure to a wider range <strong>of</strong> disciplines, including<br />
Accident and Emergency.<br />
The Noble‟s Hospital Foundation programme is part <strong>of</strong> the Mersey Deanery through whom applications<br />
and recruitment are made. A Foundation Programme Director (Mr Richard Hogg) is employed part-time<br />
under the supervision <strong>of</strong> the Director <strong>of</strong> Medical Education (Dr Adrian Dashfield) to organise and<br />
supervise this training programme. Currently, there are 24 trainee doctors in the Foundation<br />
Programme at Noble‟s Hospital. There is a protected afternoon teaching session each week and<br />
attendance at a range <strong>of</strong> teaching and other educational opportunities is strongly encouraged. In<br />
Mersey, trainees are required to complete an e-portfolio, which provides an on-going record <strong>of</strong><br />
achievement. Particular emphasis is placed on personal and career development and reflective learning.<br />
All <strong>of</strong> the assessments are recorded electronically and trainees are required to complete any gaps in<br />
their training with e-learning modules.<br />
Recent feedback from trainees and the report <strong>of</strong> the Annual Assessment Visit from the Mersey Deanery<br />
have both been excellent. Noble‟s is recognised as a modern and well-equipped hospital with friendly<br />
staff and an excellent working environment. Without exception, Foundation trainees have progressed<br />
into Specialty Training and have enjoyed the unique learning and lifestyle experience that the <strong>Isle</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Man</strong> provides.<br />

2. Critically reflect on and evaluate the principles and context <strong>of</strong> the facilitation <strong>of</strong> learning in<br />
practice.<br />
3. Deconstruct the concept <strong>of</strong> practice as a dynamic environment in which knowledge is created<br />
and learning is optimised.<br />
4. Critically evaluate the contributions <strong>of</strong> the wider inter-pr<strong>of</strong>essional team and service users<br />
within the context <strong>of</strong> practice education.<br />
5. Critically reflect on the integration <strong>of</strong> evidence-based practice to enhance the quality <strong>of</strong> the<br />
learning experience.<br />
6. Critically analyse and reflect on the assessment and evaluation <strong>of</strong> learning in practice.<br />
7. Justify the application <strong>of</strong> models <strong>of</strong> leadership and facilitation to pr<strong>of</strong>essional education.<br />

Integrated<br />
Leadership & <strong>Man</strong>agement<br />
Department <strong>of</strong> Health<br />
Integrated Leadership and <strong>Man</strong>agement Programme<br />
The Department <strong>of</strong> Health Integrated Leadership and <strong>Man</strong>agement Programme is designed to<br />
address a clearly stated need to raise the confidence and skills <strong>of</strong> managers in Department <strong>of</strong> Health<br />
and the Department <strong>of</strong> Social Care to cope with changing requirements and address risks.<br />
There are three levels to the programme:<br />
Foundation Level<br />
First Line <strong>Man</strong>agement (Operational Level)<br />
Middle <strong>Man</strong>ager (Operational/Strategic Level)<br />
The Foundation Level is aimed at those who have to supervise people and allocate resources on a<br />
shift to shift basis, but are not directly line managers. It would be <strong>of</strong> benefit to those who are new to<br />
this type <strong>of</strong> role or to supervisory managers who have had no previous management training.<br />
This is a 5 day taught programme and delegates are required to attend all 5 days.<br />
Dates for new cohorts are agreed in accordance with demand. Please nominate staff for the waiting<br />
list so that demand can be assessed.<br />
The Operational Level is aimed at those who have to supervise people, lead a team, allocate<br />
resources and are, or act as, direct line mangers to a number <strong>of</strong> staff. It would benefit managers, at<br />
any level, who have had little or no formal management training and want to strengthen their<br />
knowledge and capabilities e.g. Deputy Ward <strong>Man</strong>agers, Allied Health Pr<strong>of</strong>essionals functioning as<br />
Team Leaders, Executive Officers, Senior Residential Social Workers, Deputy Head Porters. The<br />
Operational Level is ongoing with an on-Island training provider, Training Learning and Coaching<br />
(TLC). The Operational Level is endorsed by the Institute <strong>of</strong> Leadership and <strong>Man</strong>agement for a<br />
recognised national management qualification which has been designed to meet the needs <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Department. Assessment <strong>of</strong> the participant‟s capacity to apply their learning in the workplace forms<br />
an integral part <strong>of</strong> the programme.<br />
This is a 10 day taught programme and delegates are required to attend all 10 days.<br />
Dates for new cohorts are agreed in accordance with demand. Please nominate staff for the waiting<br />
list so that demand can be assessed.<br />
The Middle <strong>Man</strong>ager Level is aimed at those who are in middle management positions, who have<br />
some management experience, have already undertaken some management training and wish to<br />
build on their experience and work on their own pr<strong>of</strong>essional development.<br />

An Introduction to the 360º Review Process<br />
A guide for subjects and reviewers<br />
What is a 360º Review<br />
A 360º review is a way to build a picture <strong>of</strong> how a person is perceived by their colleagues. It‟s called<br />
a 360º review because impressions are collected from a subject‟s manager, their peers and their staff<br />
– people who are all around you.<br />
What‟s it for?<br />
The main aims are:<br />
To help build a subject‟s self-awareness with regard to how they are perceived. It‟s not about<br />
right or wrong, good or bad – it‟s about how others see you.<br />
To see how perceptions shift during the programme. If training is effective, then change takes<br />
place in a subject‟s behaviours. This in turn affects other people‟s perceptions.<br />
How does it work?<br />
You and you manager will negotiate to decide who your reviewers should be, choosing objective and<br />
fair people from your peer group and your staff.<br />
A TLC interviewer will conduct a structured interview to find out how you are perceived.<br />
This information will be collated and analysed, and a report will be produced that synthesises the<br />
result.<br />
You will then have a feedback meeting with the TLC interviewer and your manager to discuss the<br />
outcomes.<br />
What do I get out <strong>of</strong> it?<br />
You will gain self-awareness about how you affect the people around you. This is key to both your<br />
development and to your effectiveness as a manager/leader.<br />
Why does the Department want me to do this?<br />
Your development as a person and as a manager is important to your ability to be a manager and a<br />
leader. It also helps to evidence that the programme has added value.<br />
Who‟s involved – subjects & reviewers<br />
Everyone on the programme will be a subject, and you might very well be a reviewer for one <strong>of</strong> your<br />
colleagues. As we have said, who your reviewers are is a matter for you and your manager. That<br />
said, you will get the most out <strong>of</strong> objective reviews, not those who are nice to you!<br />
Who will see my reviews?<br />
Only TLC will see the individual interview results.<br />
Who will see my feedback?<br />
We will give the analytical report to you and to your manager only. This should feed into your future<br />
performance and development.<br />
How does it connect with appraisal?<br />
The 360 is a separate process and only applies to those on the programme but the outcomes can<br />
provide feedback for your appraisal along with other feedback received throughout the appraisal<br />
period.<br />
How long does it take?<br />
Each interview will take around 30 to 40 minutes.<br />
Is it anonymous?<br />
The subject will know who the reviewers are, but they will not know who said what. Only TLC will<br />
know that.<br />

Action Learning Sets<br />
Action Learning cannot be communicated as a technique because it is ultimately concerned with<br />
pr<strong>of</strong>ound knowledge about oneself and the world".<br />
(Reg Revans, pioneer <strong>of</strong> Action Learning)<br />
What are Action Learning Sets?<br />
An Action Learning Set is a small facilitated group whose members meet regularly to share and reflect<br />
on the live work issues members face. They are a powerful vehicle for personal and pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
development, since they <strong>of</strong>fer people the opportunity to be both supported and challenged in<br />
specific aspects <strong>of</strong> their work and their approach to work.<br />
Why Action Learning Sets are valuable<br />
Most <strong>of</strong> us recognise how crucial it is to have a quality exchange with colleagues in helping us to<br />
address questions that concern us at work. Sometimes circumstances militate against a quality<br />
exchange being readily available in the immediate workplace. People may be isolated in their own<br />
particular role; they may be run <strong>of</strong>f their feet dealing with expectations and demands, and lack<br />
the space to sit back and reflect on how they are doing what they are doing; and there may be<br />
issues to do with how safe it is to reveal uncertainty about one's own knowledge and skill level.<br />
Does the culture <strong>of</strong> the workplace support this? Have people learned the relevant skills in order to<br />
do it? Is there somebody appropriate to do it with?<br />
An Action Learning Set (ALS) specifically addresses these issues. Firstly, it provides a regular<br />
opportunity to sit back and reflect. Secondly, a healthy ALS runs on principles <strong>of</strong> open-ness<br />
and exchange; it is a crucial part <strong>of</strong> the facilitator's task to ensure that the conditions <strong>of</strong><br />
safety and trust-building are in place to allow this to happen. Thirdly, an ALS provides<br />
opportunity for skill development through practising inside and outside ALS meetings<br />
different, or under-used, approaches to work situations.<br />
Finally, there is the whole business <strong>of</strong> shared learning. We are all used to learning<br />
individually, and much individual learning will happen in an ALS. However, we can learn so much<br />
faster from and with each other: sharing in thinking about somebody else's work issues will give<br />
you much greater confidence in tackling similar scenarios in your own workplace.<br />
The philosophy behind ALSs is that:<br />
People learn most effectively when they are engaged in both action and reflection.<br />
Learning is a continuous process.<br />
Learning is increased when theory is integrated with practice.<br />
Using real-life situations generates immediate opportunities for application <strong>of</strong> learning (hence<br />
Action learning).<br />
People learn from each other.<br />
Having an external facilitator maximises opportunities for learning by enabling all members <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Set to participate as fully and as effectively as possible.<br />
How an ALS works<br />
An ALS typically comprises 5 or 6 members and, initially, a facilitator. The ALS meets on a regular<br />
basis, usually every month, over a period <strong>of</strong> time agreed at the outset. The minimum number <strong>of</strong><br />
sessions for an ALS to be effective in its learning model is six. These initial periods are called<br />
"contracted agreements": group members in effect contract with each other, as well as with the<br />
facilitator, to meet for the agreed period.<br />
40
The key activity in an ALS is that members take turns to present to the group a live 'work issue'.<br />
The facilitator guides the group to explore the issue in such a way that the presenter comes away<br />
with a deeper understanding <strong>of</strong> the problem and clarity on how to act.<br />
Over time, ALSs develop increased sophistication in peer support. In turn, this enriches<br />
contacts which take place in between ALS meetings.<br />
What you could get out <strong>of</strong> an Action Learning Set<br />
These are the most important benefit ALS members derive:<br />
Learning from each other‟s experience: have other members been involved in similar or<br />
equivalent issues? What worked or didn‟t work in their experience.<br />
“Getting beneath the surface” <strong>of</strong> an issue: for example, what gets in the way <strong>of</strong> other<br />
people operating as they „should‟? Teasing out your own and other people‟s assumptions<br />
casts light on which way to move in a given situation.<br />
Enhancing your own self awareness: understanding your own blocks and blind-spots as<br />
well as truly appreciating your own strengths is key to work satisfaction and your experience<br />
<strong>of</strong> yourself as fully effective in your work and in your life.<br />
Developing your skills in feedback: working relationships critically depend on the ability<br />
to interact with others with insight as well in challenging and supportive ways.<br />
Other benefits include:<br />
The emotional value <strong>of</strong> belonging to a small supportive group.<br />
Time for your own concerns.<br />
Personal growth.<br />
Often close and deepened relationships with colleagues.<br />
Sense <strong>of</strong> being valued, listened to and encouraged.<br />
Understanding the wider picture which impacts on your job.<br />
Values and Group Processes<br />
ALSs are built on clear values: openness; sharing; mutuality; commitment to learning; the<br />
willingness to change; and equal responsibility for group development. An ALS will flourish<br />
when members allow these values to become an intrinsic part <strong>of</strong> their way <strong>of</strong> working<br />
together. Developing practice based on these values also helps members work in a far more<br />
effective and informed way in collaborative working in their wider organisational settings.<br />
The Role <strong>of</strong> the Facilitator<br />
The facilitator has a crucial role in helping an ALS get established, in building the feeling <strong>of</strong><br />
trust and safety in the ALS, and in enabling it to develop satisfying patterns <strong>of</strong> working. The<br />
facilitator looks after the dynamics within the ALS, and helps the ALS to learn about what<br />
supports good group functioning.<br />
ALSs can derive great benefit from having a facilitator to work with them for up to a year.<br />
During this time a facilitator can help an ALS build its confidence to work independently as a<br />
peer group, perhaps supplemented by occasional facilitation to their group dynamics. Once<br />
securely established as a group <strong>of</strong> peers, there is no time limit to the life <strong>of</strong> an ALS; ALSs<br />
can continue for many years through both job and personal changes.<br />
Here are some practical tips for the facilitator to help make the learning set a success:<br />
Come to the first day <strong>of</strong> the programme (Foundation Level) fourth day (Operational<br />
Level) or third day (Middle Level) with a list <strong>of</strong> proposed dates for your learning sets.<br />
Be prepared to be flexible if those dates are difficult but agree them on the day.<br />
Send Outlook appointments to put the appointments in everyone‟s diary.<br />
Remind the group a week before that the meeting is due and the proposed agenda.<br />
Make it clear that they are expected to attend and that their certificate will show their<br />
attendance.<br />
41
Be on time yourself for the meetings and try not to arrange anything immediately<br />
afterwards so you can talk informally with people one to one if they want.<br />
If for some absolutely unavoidable reason you can‟t make it nominate or agree for one <strong>of</strong><br />
the group to facilitate in your place.<br />
Agree (small) tasks to take away e.g. watching how someone manages a meeting and<br />
reflecting on how you might do it differently.<br />
Agree ground rules for ALS.<br />
With regard to confidentiality, ensure the group members are aware that if practices are<br />
raised that appear to infringe safety, the facilitator will have to inform the student <strong>of</strong> how<br />
the concern will be shared with relevant others.<br />
Share stories <strong>of</strong> your experience <strong>of</strong> management and ask them to discuss whether those<br />
approaches might work for them. Member may wish to complete STAR form prior to<br />
presenting.<br />
Have an agenda which is generated by the group (with your help).<br />
Try to link what you are doing back to the course content – all Foundation Level course<br />
content available on memory stick.<br />
Keep the meetings to two or three hours.<br />
Vary the venue (if the group wants to). They like to get out and see the places they<br />
haven‟t been to before. Each person in the group can host it.<br />
Check how people are getting on with their assignments (if they are on Level 2 or 3) and<br />
remind them that these are not optional.<br />
Keep an attendance record and feed it back to the course administrator. (Nicola Cain tel.<br />
642943)<br />
Explain the use <strong>of</strong> the ILM facilitator evaluation form after 3 then 6 <strong>of</strong> the action learning<br />
sets.<br />
Membership Issues<br />
Members <strong>of</strong> an ALS should be in sufficiently related jobs that they can genuinely and<br />
mutually add value to each other‟s thinking. Colleagues from the same organisation or part<br />
<strong>of</strong> the organisation may join the same „open‟ Set, but this will have an impact on the set so<br />
should be done with awareness and responsibility.<br />
It is inadvisable for a line manager and a direct report both to be in the same ALS, as<br />
genuine openness will be difficult for both.<br />
Role <strong>of</strong> the Action Learning Set Member<br />
Members <strong>of</strong> the learning set should:<br />
Recognise that the 6 learning sets are a vital part <strong>of</strong> the learning experience. Through<br />
sharing and discussion they assist the links to be made between theory and practice.<br />
Attend and engage with the creation <strong>of</strong> the learning sets. The venue and times <strong>of</strong> where<br />
you will meet will be agreed with your facilitator. The final 6 th date and venue is agreed<br />
with the other groups and their facilitator so the group can reconvene and share<br />
experiences. Each learning set is approximately 2 hours long.<br />
Attend every session. Completion <strong>of</strong> all the taught components and the learning sets are<br />
required to complete the full course. If it is absolutely unavoidable that you will be<br />
absent let your facilitator know and talk to other members <strong>of</strong> the ALS to find out what<br />
you missed. A record <strong>of</strong> attendance will be kept and will be recorded on your certificate.<br />
Where the facilitator is concerned about your absence your line manager will be<br />
contacted.<br />
Reflect on the links between the theory in the taught component and your working<br />
practice. It is very useful for you to bring along an example from work where you have<br />
practiced some <strong>of</strong> the taught management and leadership skills. This will maximise the<br />
facilitation time to explore and build on what you have considered already. You may wish<br />
to complete the Star Form.<br />
As a group you may decide on ground rules and add any further you think are helpful to<br />
the group‟s learning potential.<br />

Title - Intensive Interaction Practitioner Programme<br />
Length - 5 afternoon sessions<br />
Brief Description<br />
This course will be <strong>of</strong> interest to staff <strong>of</strong> all disciplines who work with adults and children with severe<br />
learning difficulties, including social care staff, teachers and assistants, nurses, staff from voluntary<br />
organisations, therapists and indeed patients and other carers. The focus is on the communication<br />
needs <strong>of</strong> people who have not achieved use or perhaps understanding <strong>of</strong> speech and may be “difficult<br />
to reach” in various ways. Intensive Interaction is an approach where the member <strong>of</strong> staff is seen as<br />
the main teaching resource, using personal qualities <strong>of</strong> face, voice and body language to involve the<br />
learner in progressive sequences <strong>of</strong> interactive activities. These activities provide the person with<br />
learning difficulties with the opportunity to learn the pre-speech fundamentals <strong>of</strong> communication such<br />
as enjoying being with another person, giving sustained attention, turn-taking, use and<br />
understanding <strong>of</strong> eye contacts, facial expressions, body language and non-verbal signalling.<br />
The course will include extensive use <strong>of</strong> video examples. Comprehensive hand-outs will be given.<br />
Course members should expect to work in a warm, humorous and supportive atmosphere.<br />
Course Content<br />
the development <strong>of</strong> Intensive Interaction<br />
how people learn to communicate and relate in infancy<br />
the fundamentals <strong>of</strong> communication<br />
the principles <strong>of</strong> Intensive Interaction<br />
how to do Intensive Interaction<br />
organising work on Intensive Interaction<br />
record-keeping and documentation<br />
issues: age appropriateness, challenging behaviours, physical contact, teamwork, ethics,<br />
emotional bonding / pr<strong>of</strong>essional objectivity.<br />
Course Delivery<br />
This course will run over five afternoon sessions. Participants will be expected to attend all five<br />
sessions and also schedule a visit from Jan to their place <strong>of</strong> work for a “live” tutorial. Also, each<br />
course member will bring videos <strong>of</strong> their own Intensive Interaction sessions to the two further<br />
workshops for group feedback and will keep a written logbook on their sessions. Collaborative<br />
review <strong>of</strong> these videos comprises a major aspect <strong>of</strong> course content, both in terms <strong>of</strong> learning II<br />
technique by reflection and evaluation together and in terms <strong>of</strong> the course members satisfactorily<br />
demonstrating their abilities.<br />
Target Group<br />
Staff members who have daily contact with pupils / service users.<br />
Staff members who enjoy working closely with the pupils / service users<br />
Staff members who are prepared to give full participation to the course, to contribute to<br />
discussion, analysis and all other course processes<br />
Preferably, course members will already have had some experience in using Intensive<br />
Interaction, however this is not a pre-requisite for attendance.<br />

Be clear about your role and responsibilities and those <strong>of</strong> others who work around you.<br />
Appreciate what you bring to the team and what others contribute<br />
Discuss responsibilities that we all share.<br />
Become a better team member by learning to communicate in a way that others understand.<br />
Get others on board with your ideas.<br />
Find things that you can change and work with others to make those changes. Small changes<br />
have a big impact.<br />
Understand what it is like to be a patient or visitor and make that experience better for them.<br />
Feel good about your work.<br />
The workshops will provide a number <strong>of</strong> practical tools that you can use back in your area. It also<br />
gives you time out to think about and discuss things in relation to practice and service delivery.<br />
After the first one and a half days workshop, you will be asked to make a change in your workplace.<br />
When you come back for the final half day, which will be approximately 4 – 6 weeks later, you will<br />
be asked to share your experience with others so that everyone learns together.<br />

Appendix 1<br />
<strong>Man</strong>datory Training Policy<br />
1. Introduction<br />
1.1 Training is at the heart <strong>of</strong> the delivery <strong>of</strong> high standards <strong>of</strong> care. The benefits <strong>of</strong> investment in<br />
our employees are essential to the organisation‟s success in ensuring that our staff meet<br />
1. the needs <strong>of</strong> patients, service users, customers, clients and their carers<br />
2. the needs <strong>of</strong> the organisation (including legislative responsibility) and<br />
3. their own individual training needs.<br />
2. Purpose<br />
2.1 The purpose <strong>of</strong> this policy is to clarify the Department‟s expectations for mandatory training in<br />
order to ensure that services and care are provided in a safe and appropriate manner. The<br />
policy is intended to provide a reference document to enable managers to plan to meet all<br />
mandatory training needs during any one year.<br />
2.2 In implementing this policy the Department‟s objectives are to ensure that<br />
the Department‟s activities are carried out safely and without risk to health, so far as is<br />
reasonably practicable.<br />
all employees are aware <strong>of</strong> the organisation‟s and their own responsibilities for providing and<br />
attending training.<br />
employees have the necessary competence to enable them to carry out their duties with<br />
minimum risk to themselves and others.<br />
3. Scope<br />
3.1 This policy applies to all staff in the Department <strong>of</strong> Health. It overrides and supersedes any<br />
policies in existence in Divisions, sections, units, wards or directorates within the Department.<br />
4. Definition <strong>of</strong> Terms<br />
4.1 The term „mandatory training‟ will apply to all training which is an essential requirement to<br />
comply with statutory, policy or other requirements or guidelines <strong>of</strong> the Department.<br />
4.2 The terms „core‟, „statutory‟ and any other terms to denote essential training or mandatory<br />
training as defined above will no longer be used.<br />
5. Policy<br />
5.1 This policy sets out the components and frequency <strong>of</strong> mandatory training.<br />
5.2 All DH employees have a responsibility for identifying their individual training requirement and<br />
ensuring, along with their line manager, placement on the courses provided. Employees must ensure<br />
that their mandatory training is up to date.<br />
91
5.3 It is the responsibility <strong>of</strong> the line manager to ensure that all staff within their sphere <strong>of</strong><br />
responsibility attend mandatory training within agreed time scales. In order to ensure this the line<br />
manager must enable staff to be released from work as necessary.<br />
5.4 It is the responsibility <strong>of</strong> the course participant to attend their course. In the event that they are<br />
unable to attend they must inform their line manager who will contact the provider <strong>of</strong> the programme<br />
to inform them <strong>of</strong> the anticipated absence.<br />
5.5 Should any course be cancelled it is the responsibility <strong>of</strong> the provider <strong>of</strong> the training to inform the<br />
expected participants and re-arrange. The provider should also inform staff at the venue in order<br />
that they can pass on up to date information to persons attending for the programme.<br />
5.6 All attendance at mandatory training sessions will be recorded and monitored. Providers will<br />
inform line managers <strong>of</strong> any absences. Failure to attend training identified as mandatory may result in<br />
disciplinary action.<br />
5.7 There may be occasions when illness/disability may prevent individuals being able to complete all<br />
aspects <strong>of</strong> their mandatory training. <strong>Man</strong>agers are advised that in this situation the presenting risk/s<br />
must be assessed in order for a decision to be made on the nature and extent <strong>of</strong> mandatory training<br />
to be undertaken. This should be documented either on appointment (if appropriate) or when the<br />
condition is identified.<br />
5.8 Course evaluation will be completed on all mandatory training programmes. The outcome <strong>of</strong> this<br />
evaluation will be used to enhance future programmes and to enable monitoring <strong>of</strong> provision<br />
Department-wide.<br />
6. Minimum requirements<br />
6.1 As a minimum all staff in DH should complete mandatory training at the intervals described in the<br />
Table A below. Additional requirements for certain designated staff across the whole Department can<br />
be found in Table B.<br />
6.2 Provision <strong>of</strong> the minimum mandatory requirements should (as far as possible) take place as part<br />
<strong>of</strong> induction. Refreshers and repeat sessions should (as far as possible) be completed on a costeffective<br />
basis including attendance at the sessions for induction and the use <strong>of</strong> electronic or other<br />
media where appropriate.<br />
6.3 Where mandatory training is provided for certain staff, managers may, at their discretion, send<br />
other staff as appropriate. These are minimum requirements and managers may send other staff to<br />
courses should they consider them to be needed.<br />
6.4 From time to time additional training to respond to organisational changes or technical updates<br />
will be organised for staff and will be mandatory. <strong>Man</strong>agers should ensure that staff are released for<br />
this training. Any additional training <strong>of</strong> this nature should be approved through the Learning Strategy<br />
Group.<br />

Appendix 1<br />
ISLE OF MAN GOVERNMENT<br />
DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL CARE<br />
1. Introduction<br />
DSC <strong>Man</strong>datory Training Policy<br />
January <strong>2012</strong><br />
1.2 Achieving high standards <strong>of</strong> care requires a skilled, capable, confident and<br />
knowledgeable workforce and to achieve this, demands an investment in<br />
training and development especially mandatory training. <strong>Man</strong>datory training is<br />
that training which is essential for staff to do their jobs effectively, safely and<br />
in as short a time as is possible.<br />
1.3 This policy is divided into two parts:<br />
Purpose<br />
<br />
<br />
Part 1 is the text <strong>of</strong> the policy and<br />
Part 2 is a series <strong>of</strong> appendices in tabular format describing the<br />
detail <strong>of</strong> the mandatory training required across the DSC and<br />
its constituent parts. Part 2, the table, will be amended and<br />
updated as circumstances change and should be seen as a live<br />
document. Staff Development will, in consultation, maintain an<br />
up to date part 2 <strong>of</strong> the policy.<br />
2.1 The policy provides a clear direction to enable managers to plan and to meet all<br />
mandatory training needs.<br />
2.2 In implementing this policy the Department‟s objectives are to ensure that:<br />
The Department‟s activities are carried out safely and without risk to health,<br />
so far as is reasonably practicable.<br />
All employees are aware <strong>of</strong> the organisations and their own responsibilities<br />
for providing and attending mandatory training.<br />
Employees have the necessary competence to enable them to carry out their<br />
duties with minimum risk to themselves and others.<br />
3. Scope<br />
3.1 This policy applies to all staff in the Department <strong>of</strong> Social Care (DSC) and to<br />
avoid confusion it applies equally to agency and interim employees as well as full<br />
time, part time and job share employees.<br />
Definition <strong>of</strong> Terms<br />
4.1 The term „mandatory training‟ applies to all training which is an essential<br />
requirement to comply with statutory, policy or other requirements or guidelines <strong>of</strong><br />
the Department.<br />
4.2 This policy is authorised by the Social Care Policy Group on behalf <strong>of</strong> the Social<br />
Care Accounting Officer. And by the Joint DH/DSC Learning Strategy group.<br />
103
5. Policy<br />
5.1 This policy sets out the detail <strong>of</strong> mandatory training in the appendices.<br />
5.2 <strong>Man</strong>datory training will have a priority over all other training and development<br />
activity.<br />
5.3 <strong>Man</strong>datory training needs will be met within 12 months <strong>of</strong> an employee‟s start<br />
date within the exigencies <strong>of</strong> the service.<br />
5.4 All refresher training will be completed within the timescale designated in part 2<br />
<strong>of</strong> this policy.<br />
All DSC employees have a responsibility for identifying their individual training<br />
requirement, especially mandatory training and ensuring, along with their line<br />

6.2 Provision <strong>of</strong> the minimum mandatory requirements should take place as part <strong>of</strong> a<br />
staff induction programme whenever possible and where not as soon after<br />
employment as is practicable in the circumstances pertaining to each service area,<br />
also see 5.2 and 5.3 above.<br />
6.3 If an individual feels that they are not getting access to mandatory training at<br />
any time they should raise the matter with their line manager in the first instance. If<br />
the situation does not change then the matter should be brought to the attention <strong>of</strong><br />
Staff Development.<br />
This policy will be reviewed formally in April 2014 but this does not preclude changes<br />
and updates at any time.<br />

Appendix 2<br />
DH/DSC Study Leave Policy<br />
1.0 Introduction<br />
1.1 This document outlines the policy <strong>of</strong> the Department <strong>of</strong> Health and Department <strong>of</strong> Social Care<br />
regarding study leave and financial support for its staff undertaking courses <strong>of</strong> study in connection with<br />
their work for the Department.<br />
1.2 The document also includes details <strong>of</strong> the procedure for applying for study leave and funding for<br />
courses and a standard form is included which supersedes all previous forms for application for study<br />
leave, financial assistance and travel and subsistence in connection with courses, conferences etc.<br />
2.0 Definition <strong>of</strong> terms<br />
2.1 Study Leave is a period <strong>of</strong> time agreed with the employee‟s line manager when the employee would<br />
have paid leave to undertake agreed education, training and development activities.<br />
2.2 Continuous Pr<strong>of</strong>essional Development is the development <strong>of</strong> competence throughout a pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
career in accordance with the regulatory requirements <strong>of</strong> relevant pr<strong>of</strong>essional bodies and in order to<br />
achieve agreed business objectives. It includes the systematic maintenance, improvement and<br />
broadening <strong>of</strong> relevant knowledge and skills.<br />
3.0 Scope <strong>of</strong> the Policy<br />
3.1 This policy relates to all staff except civil servants, dental and medical staff. This policy relates to all<br />
bank/agency staff but not to contractors.<br />
3.2 This policy relates to the following learning activities:<br />

4.0 Policy Statement<br />
4.1 The DH/DSC Learning Strategy states that it is the Departments‟ policy<br />
“to ensure that health and social care workers and all staff and carers who support them in the <strong>Isle</strong> <strong>of</strong><br />
<strong>Man</strong> are provided with high quality and readily available opportunities for education, training and<br />
development to enable them to perform their roles to recognised standards, meet pr<strong>of</strong>essional body<br />
expectations and afford them personal development.”<br />
4.2 <strong>Man</strong>agers may, at their discretion, authorise financial assistance for continuing pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />
development/educational events, subject to the conditions below, taking into account the need to<br />
maintain required staffing levels in their part <strong>of</strong> the Department.<br />
4.3 In using that discretion, managers need to be consistent in their approach to approving leave and<br />
expenses for education and training purposes. They must adhere to the criteria laid down and apply<br />
them fairly and equitably to all staff within their area <strong>of</strong> management.<br />
4.4 No group <strong>of</strong> staff should be excluded from study leave or funding provisions. Particular care should<br />
be taken to ensure that part-time staff or those with carer responsibilities are not discriminated against<br />
either directly or indirectly and are afforded equal access to learning opportunities. Similarly, care should<br />
be taken to ensure that those working unusual shift patterns or night shifts can still access learning<br />
opportunities.<br />
4.5 Wherever possible study leave and expenses should not be approved by the line manager unless<br />
they have been agreed in the supervision, appraisal or performance review process pertaining to that<br />
member <strong>of</strong> staff. The learning concerned should contribute to the achievement <strong>of</strong> the business plans and<br />
objectives <strong>of</strong> the Division, unit, ward or section <strong>of</strong> which that employee is a part.<br />
4.6 <strong>Man</strong>agers across both Departments are responsible for making staff aware <strong>of</strong> suitable education,<br />
training and development opportunities for their staff and actively encouraging staff to participate.<br />
4.7 Individual members <strong>of</strong> staff are responsible for their own training and development. Where staff<br />
have Continuing Pr<strong>of</strong>essional Development requirements which should be recorded and subject to actual<br />
or potential verification by pr<strong>of</strong>essional bodies it is the member <strong>of</strong> staff‟s own responsibility to maintain<br />
their CPD and their record <strong>of</strong> that.<br />
4.8 <strong>Man</strong>agers are responsible for ensuring that there is no discrimination on grounds <strong>of</strong> age, gender,<br />
race, or other irrelevant stereotypes in the application <strong>of</strong> this policy.<br />
4.9 Study leave <strong>of</strong> up to one day per examination may be granted for examinations for nationally<br />
recognised qualifications.<br />
4.10 In the event <strong>of</strong> an employee disagreeing with the decision <strong>of</strong> their line manager they may seek to<br />
resolve the issue through the use the Department‟s grievance procedure.<br />
5.0 Criteria for leave and expenses<br />
5.1 N.B. Neither leave nor the reimbursement <strong>of</strong> expenses may be claimed as a right.<br />
122
5.2 When considering applications for leave (paid or otherwise) and/or the possibility <strong>of</strong> reimbursement<br />
<strong>of</strong> expenses, each case will be reviewed individually on its own merits by the relevant managers. In<br />
particular the manager will<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Determine the relevance <strong>of</strong> the study to the performance <strong>of</strong> current and prospective duties and to<br />
the career structure for the grade <strong>of</strong> staff concerned.<br />
Determine the opportunities (or lack <strong>of</strong> them) for the applicant to keep abreast <strong>of</strong> and/or add to<br />
his/her knowledge through means other than formal training<br />
Consider the requirements <strong>of</strong> pr<strong>of</strong>essional bodies for protected time and study leave<br />
Consider the needs <strong>of</strong> the service<br />
Consider the level <strong>of</strong> study activity previously afforded to the member <strong>of</strong> staff.<br />
Consider the needs <strong>of</strong> all members <strong>of</strong> the team<br />
5.3 Study leave will always be granted for mandatory training.<br />
5.4 Study leave for attendance at course, conferences and other developmental events will not normally<br />
be agreed by where staff members have failed to attend mandatory training.<br />
6.0 Timescales<br />
6.1 Although the education and training budget is provided annually, <strong>Man</strong>agers should consider longer<br />
term demands on their budgets. Line managers should as far as possible, ensure that they are<br />
committed to funding courses for their full duration. However, in agreeing to fund a course during one<br />
year the Department is not automatically committed to funding subsequent years <strong>of</strong> the same<br />
programme.<br />
7.0 Pay during study time<br />
7.1 Where study leave has been agreed staff will be paid in accordance with their usual contractual<br />
arrangements.<br />
7.2 Where an area <strong>of</strong> learning is considered desirable for the person to perform their role taking into<br />
account the factors in paragraph 5.2 above, managers may give consideration to the possibility <strong>of</strong> giving<br />
fees and expenses or time <strong>of</strong>f but not necessarily both.<br />
8.0 Travel<br />
8.1 Travel time for attendance at courses, study days, events etc will not be paid.<br />
9.0 Procedure<br />
9.1 All applications (except mandatory training) must be made in writing using the appropriate form<br />
provided at the end <strong>of</strong> this document.<br />
9.2 Applicants must include the aims and objectives <strong>of</strong> the learning.<br />
9.3 Expenses and time <strong>of</strong>f must be agreed prior to acceptance <strong>of</strong> the course or event.<br />
9.4 Where an employee works in more than one part <strong>of</strong> the Department e.g. two part-time jobs or bank<br />
working, they should not claim study leave and/or fees and expenses from more than one place. They<br />
123
should also agree their application with each place where they work and record it in their<br />
appraisal/performance review record.<br />
9.5 Where leave with pay is granted the employee must not undertake any remunerative work during<br />
the period <strong>of</strong> study leave.<br />
9.6 The cost <strong>of</strong> a course may be reclaimed from the individual in the following circumstances:<br />
if they fail to complete the course<br />
if they withdraw from the course less than a week before commencement<br />
if they fail to attend.<br />
9.7 Training leave should be recorded in the individual‟s Oracle HRFS record.<br />

OFF ISLAND TRAVEL POLICY<br />
Scope<br />
This policy relates to all staff in the Department <strong>of</strong> Health.<br />
Purpose<br />
This document is designed to clarify the policy <strong>of</strong> the Department with relation to <strong>of</strong>f Island travel at<br />
public expense.<br />
Principles<br />
Off Island travel will only take place where this is needed to ensure delivery <strong>of</strong> effective services by the<br />
Department.<br />
Travel to the UK for staff at public expense should be limited to that which is essential. Given the variety<br />
<strong>of</strong> reasons staff may have for travelling to the UK, it is impossible to give absolute and comprehensive<br />
guidance. The following are suggestions <strong>of</strong> what should normally be approved:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Travel essential to maintain registration, or to achieve mandatory CPD where the requirements<br />
cannot be met on Island<br />
Travel where the individual is addressing or making a formal presentation to a conference or<br />
pr<strong>of</strong>essional event<br />
Travel where the individual will undergo training or assessment/certification in order to provide a<br />
service on the Island<br />
Travel to attend clinical networks on behalf <strong>of</strong> the IOM<br />
Travel to attend clinical case conferences or case reviews where the patient is being treated in the<br />
UK and no video conference or telemedical link is available<br />
Travel as a clinical escort<br />
Travel to attend formal business meetings with UK NHS Trusts, the UK Department <strong>of</strong> Health or<br />
other public bodies<br />
Attendance at conferences or to attend interesting and worthwhile but non-essential events should not<br />
normally be authorised.<br />
Process<br />
1. In accordance with Financial Regulation FD9, prior written approval must be obtained for all <strong>of</strong>ficial<br />
travel from the Island as follows:<br />
a) Domestic Travel (British <strong>Isle</strong>s) - the Accounting Officer or other senior <strong>of</strong>ficers so<br />
authorised in writing by the Accounting Officer;<br />
b) Worldwide Travel (Beyond British <strong>Isle</strong>s) - the approval <strong>of</strong> the Minister or CEO is also<br />
required.<br />
125
NB The British <strong>Isle</strong>s consist <strong>of</strong> Great Britain, the whole <strong>of</strong> Ireland, the Orkney and Shetland<br />
<strong>Isle</strong>s, the <strong>Isle</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Man</strong>, the Inner and Outer Hebrides, the <strong>Isle</strong> <strong>of</strong> Wight, the <strong>Isle</strong>s <strong>of</strong> Scilly,<br />
Lundy Island and the Channel Islands.<br />
2. The appropriate form to use to request <strong>of</strong>f Island travel is the “Application for Study Leave and/or<br />
to Attend a Conference, Training Event or Business Event” as attached.<br />
3. Accounting Officers must record details <strong>of</strong> all <strong>of</strong>f Island travel taken by Members and Officers on<br />
<strong>of</strong>ficial business. Therefore a copy <strong>of</strong> the approved form should be sent to the DH Learning Team<br />
at Keyll Darree for record-keeping purposes.<br />
4. Accounting Officers must forward to the Treasury, in January <strong>of</strong> each year in a form prescribed by<br />
the Treasury, details <strong>of</strong> all travel outside the British <strong>Isle</strong>s made by Members and <strong>of</strong>ficers in the<br />
previous calendar year. Travel made by Officers which is essential for the performance <strong>of</strong> their<br />
duties and the cost <strong>of</strong> which is reimbursed by non government clients is excluded from this return<br />
e.g. travel by marine/aircraft surveyors.<br />
5. Travel (including mileage) and subsistence allowances are to be at the rates from time to time<br />
published by the Treasury.<br />
6. The certification <strong>of</strong> a travel or subsistence form by an Accounting Officer or an <strong>of</strong>ficer authorised<br />
to act on his behalf signifies that the journeys were authorised and necessary, the expenses were<br />
properly and necessarily incurred and the allowances are properly payable by the designated<br />
bodies.<br />
7. The normal method <strong>of</strong> payment shall be via the payroll system (i.e. weekly/monthly) appropriate<br />
to the claimant. If any designated body seeks to use an alternative method <strong>of</strong> payment as the<br />
norm it must obtain prior written approval from the Treasury‟s Financial Controller.<br />

A GUIDE TO EDUCATIONAL CURRENCY<br />
How different qualifications compare<br />
You may hear people talking about qualification 'levels'. These levels are contained in three qualification<br />
'frameworks':<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
National Qualifications Framework<br />
Qualifications and Credit Framework (the framework for vocational, or<br />
work-related qualifications)<br />
Framework for Higher Education Qualifications<br />
The frameworks group together qualifications that place similar demands on you as a learner. However,<br />
within any one level, qualifications can cover a wide mix <strong>of</strong> subjects, and take different amounts <strong>of</strong> time to<br />
complete.<br />
The frameworks can also help you see how one type <strong>of</strong> qualification can lead on to other, higher levels <strong>of</strong><br />
qualifications.<br />
National Qualifications Framework<br />
The National Qualifications Framework (NQF) sets out the level at which a qualification can be recognised in<br />
England, Northern Ireland and Wales.<br />
Only qualifications that have been accredited by the three regulators for England, Wales and Northern<br />
Ireland can be included in the NQF. This ensures that all qualifications within the framework are <strong>of</strong> high<br />
quality, and meet the needs <strong>of</strong> learners and employers.<br />
Qualifications and Credit Framework<br />
The Qualifications and Credit Framework (QCF) contains vocational (or work-related) qualifications,<br />
available in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.<br />
These qualifications are made up <strong>of</strong> units that are worth credits. You can study units at your own pace and<br />
build these up to full qualifications <strong>of</strong> different sizes over time.<br />
Units and qualifications also range in difficulty, from entry level to level 8 (similar to the levels in the NQF).<br />

Framework for Higher Education Qualifications<br />
The Framework for Higher Education Qualifications (F<strong>HE</strong>Q) has been designed by the higher education<br />
sector, and describes all the main higher education qualifications. It applies to degrees, diplomas,<br />
certificates and other academic awards granted by a university or higher education college (apart from<br />
honorary degrees and higher doctorates).<br />
The F<strong>HE</strong>Q broadly corresponds with levels 4 to 8 <strong>of</strong> the National Qualifications Framework, in terms <strong>of</strong> the<br />
demands the qualifications place on learners.<br />

It is wise to check the validity <strong>of</strong> credits linked to a unit you intend doing, before you<br />
purchase or embark on it, on or <strong>of</strong>f Island.<br />

Appendix 4<br />
ACCREDITATION OF PRIOR (EXPERIENTIAL) LEARNING<br />
If you feel you would like to capture the learning you have acquired in your various occupational roles,<br />
or have studied elsewhere, AP(E)L may be a route into further academic achievement.<br />
Accreditation <strong>of</strong> Prior Learning (APL) whether it is certificated or experiential, leads to credit being<br />
given to previous modules / experiences being accepted as part <strong>of</strong> another programme.<br />
There are two types <strong>of</strong> prior learning:<br />
1. Prior Certificated Learning – refers to learning undertaken as part <strong>of</strong> a recognised programme <strong>of</strong><br />
studies completed satisfactorily in whole or in part for which formal recognition or certification has<br />
been given.<br />
2. Prior Experiential Learning – refers to learning outside the recognised educational or training<br />
systems; it will not therefore be certificated.<br />
If you wish to read more about this process ask for a copy <strong>of</strong> the AP(E)L guidelines from Pauline Golding<br />
(email pauline.golding@gov.im or phone 642976) or contact John Struthers (email<br />

ROOM BOOKING AND BOOKING CONDITIONS<br />
Contact Details<br />
Reception staff in Keyll Darree will be able to take details <strong>of</strong> initial enquiries; however the person<br />
responsible for keeping the room booking diary system and for invoicing is Frances Hampton and her<br />
contact details are as follows:<br />
Frances Hampton telephone 642934 e-mail frances.hampton@gov.im<br />
Making a Booking<br />
It is advisable to contact Reception staff well in advance <strong>of</strong> a proposed event to establish availability and<br />
to discuss alternative dates and times. However, most bookings for the following year can only be taken<br />
from the previous September at the earliest to allow the Centre‟s staff to input the Centre‟s core teaching<br />
commitments into the system.<br />
Following the initial enquiry a booking form will be sent to the organiser for completion and return. In the<br />
case <strong>of</strong> <strong>Government</strong> Departments, Boards or Offices an <strong>of</strong>ficial <strong>Government</strong> order form should accompany<br />
the completed booking form. Please note that room bookings for meetings can only be accommodated if<br />
held out <strong>of</strong> normal <strong>of</strong>fice hours. This is to ensure the availability <strong>of</strong> rooms for education and training<br />
purposes.<br />
An invoice will be sent to you for payment on completion <strong>of</strong> the event.<br />
Provisional bookings will be held for a maximum <strong>of</strong> 14 days to allow for the booking form to be completed<br />
and returned to Reception staff. Confirmation will be sent within a few days <strong>of</strong> the booking form being<br />
received.<br />
Period <strong>of</strong> Booking<br />
The period <strong>of</strong> use shown on the booking form should be agreed at the time <strong>of</strong> the provisional booking and<br />
should be adhered to. Event organisers should allow for setting up prior to the event and clearing away<br />
afterwards so that rooms are left ready for the next user.<br />
Amendments/Cancellation <strong>of</strong> a Booking<br />
Keyll Darree staff will try to assist wherever possible to accommodate any changes to the booking<br />
however priority will always be given to those events coming under schedule A <strong>of</strong> the charging policy.<br />
Cancellation <strong>of</strong> a booking (or any part there<strong>of</strong>) by the organiser may attract a cancellation fee as follows:<br />
‣ Less than two weeks prior to the event – 100% <strong>of</strong> the full fee<br />
‣ More than two weeks but less than four weeks – 50% <strong>of</strong> the full fee<br />
‣ More than four weeks but less than eight weeks – 20% <strong>of</strong> the full fee<br />
Catering (Ground floor use only)<br />
The catering/refreshment arrangements for all functions will normally be the responsibility <strong>of</strong> the<br />
organiser. However, some assistance may be available from Keyll Darree staff (eg greeting caterers and<br />
enabling them access to facilities within normal <strong>of</strong>fice hours) and in all cases Reception staff should be<br />
kept fully informed about all arrangements which are made.<br />
Tea, c<strong>of</strong>fee and juice can be made available at a charge <strong>of</strong> 50 pence per person per half day. In addition,<br />
if biscuits are also required the cost will be £1.00 per person per half day. This service is not available out<br />
<strong>of</strong> normal working hours and Organisers will need to make their own arrangements. Kitchen facilities are<br />
available.<br />
136
No food or drink shall be served or consumed in the Lecture Theatre.<br />
No food or drink shall be served or consumed in Seminar Rooms 3 to 7.<br />
Unfortunately we are not able to take bookings for Seminar Rooms 3 to 7 if catering is required.<br />
Messages<br />
During normal <strong>of</strong>fice hours any message received for people attending events will be left in Reception.<br />
Only in an emergency will messages be taken into the room.<br />
Photocopying<br />
Unfortunately we are unable to <strong>of</strong>fer a photocopying service for hand outs.<br />
Payment <strong>of</strong> Hire Charges<br />
The full cost <strong>of</strong> the booking must be paid on receipt <strong>of</strong> our invoice within 30 days (see Charging Schedule<br />
below). In the case <strong>of</strong> <strong>Government</strong> Departments, Boards or Offices an <strong>of</strong>ficial <strong>Government</strong> order form<br />
should accompany the booking form.<br />
Exceptional Circumstances<br />
Users <strong>of</strong> Keyll Darree may in exceptional circumstances be requested to move their reserved date if an<br />
urgent priority request is received from a user under charging schedule A. Users <strong>of</strong> Keyll Darree may in<br />
exceptional circumstances be allocated a different room to that booked. The Centre‟s staff are under no<br />
obligation to accept bookings from users to whom charging schedules B or C apply, and that the booking<br />
<strong>of</strong> rooms for the Centre‟s core teaching commitments will take priority over all other bookings regardless<br />
<strong>of</strong> which schedule applies.<br />
Parking<br />
Event attendees should park in the designated parking areas (Main car park or Ballafletcher Sports ground<br />
car park) and not to park on the roads around Keyll Darree and the Hospital as they need to be kept clear<br />
for access by emergency vehicles.<br />
Organisers and Person „In Charge‟ Responsibilities<br />
All bookings will require an „organiser‟ to be identified on the booking form who will ensure that the<br />
details on the booking form are correct. They will also identify the person „in charge‟ <strong>of</strong> the event on the<br />
day. The person „in charge‟ will:<br />
‣ Make contact with Reception staff at least seven days prior to the event to ensure they are familiar<br />
with, and adhere to, the various procedures (ie security, emergency evacuation, equipment etc).<br />
‣ At evening events ensure that someone is at the front door to let people in until 10 minutes after the<br />
event begins. The front door is not to be left propped open, which would compromise Keyll Darree‟s<br />
security arrangements.<br />
‣ Be present for the duration <strong>of</strong> the event.<br />
‣ Maintain a list <strong>of</strong> attendees throughout the event in case <strong>of</strong> an emergency evacuation.<br />
‣ Familiarise themselves with the emergency exit procedure and briefing all attendees accordingly.<br />
‣ Undertake a briefing on the use <strong>of</strong> any equipment.<br />
‣ Ensure adherence to the „No Smoking‟ policy <strong>of</strong> the building.<br />
‣ Be responsible for the clearing away <strong>of</strong> all literature, debris, items <strong>of</strong> equipment, crockery, cutlery etc<br />
and leaving the Centre in a clean and tidy condition so as to cause no delay for the next user.<br />
‣ Ensure that no part <strong>of</strong> the Centre is used for any activity which might be deemed to be dangerous,<br />
noxious, noisy, illegal or immoral or which may become a nuisance or annoyance to other users <strong>of</strong><br />
Keyll Darree.<br />
137
Indemnity<br />
Users must take good care and not cause any damage to be done to the facilities and equipment provided<br />
at Keyll Darree, and must make good and pay for any such damage caused by any act or negligence on<br />
the part <strong>of</strong> the users or any persons permitted to access Keyll Darree by the users, in accordance with<br />
whatever valuation is put on the damages by the DH.<br />
The DH will not be liable for the death or injury <strong>of</strong> any person attending a non-DH function at Keyll Darree<br />
or for any other liability incurred by users during the period <strong>of</strong> use, unless such death, injury or other<br />
liability is due to negligence on the part <strong>of</strong> DH staff.<br />
The DH will not, under any circumstances, accept responsibility or liability in respect to damage or loss <strong>of</strong><br />
goods, articles or property <strong>of</strong> any kind brought into or left at Keyll Darree by users or other parties<br />
attending functions.<br />
Keyll Darree is under no obligation to accept bookings from users to whom charging schedules B or C<br />
apply, and that the booking <strong>of</strong> rooms for the Centre‟s core teaching commitments will take priority over all<br />
other bookings regardless <strong>of</strong> which schedule applies.<br />
