What we have delivered PhD: Graduate tutorials & networking
• Introductory and welcome events organised
• Training plan for 2016– Ethics – HPA & plan to use PPI Advisors to simulate mock-ethics
committee– PPI – Plan to collaborate with other NIHR programmes– Engagement/Collaboration – more thinking required to deliver this
• Peer support – encourage to collaborate as a network, for example- second reviewer for identifying papers in systematic reviews- second reviewer for qualitative analysis- share statistical expertise for quantitative analysis- Read draft chapters and papers

Consultation with PPI Supervisory Committee
A 3-pronged approach agreed:1) Organise 1-2 days during any given month where PhD student with
shadow someone in health and social care organisations who has a role in PPI
2) Link to a PPI Advisor as ‘buddy’ – PPI Advisor to provide their own insight on their role and challenges they face as PPI Advisor - Feedback from Theme 3, this model is working well.
3) PPI advice on PhD work can be brought to the PPI Supervisory Committee as required – PhD student would receive feedback from PPI Advisors on a specific part of their project
What we have delivered PhD: PPI internships
CLAHRC West Midlands
What we have deliveredFormal training and funding
• MSc Health Research Methods established (UoB)• MSc Healthcare Innovation & Leadership (WBS)• Funded a number (6) of Leadership/Diffusion Fellows to undertake
p/t master’s (most opted for MPH) at UoB • Link with UHBFT Annex U graduate programme (all will be
registered to undertake the MSc Leadership at Warwick)
CLAHRC West Midlands
What we have deliveredDeveloping CLAHRC faculty staff
• Training and development through individual themes/teams– Variation? Local challenges?
• Supporting NIHR-funded - doctoral students (1), fellowships holders (4) and professorships (1)– Other fellowship applications and senior investigators (N=?)
• Embedded positions maximise this opportunity)
• Feedback from Theme leads about how well this is going?
CLAHRC West Midlands
What we have yet to deliver
• International exchange programme for PhD student– RJL EU grant for PhD programme in low-middle income
countries– Contingency plan?– Amy Grove successful on NIHR ‘national’ exchange scheme
• Networking is not working as well as pilot CLAHRC • Other constraints around resources
- No consumable budgets for individual students- No single identifiable budget for overarching capacity development activity
• Expectations of other parts of infrastructure that CLAHRC solely responsible for all capacity development activities across WM (!)
