What is the Training Hub?

The Training Hub is funded via Health Education England (HEE) and NHS Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.

The Training Hub is made up of three is made up of three Community Provider Education Networks (CEPNs) from each locality – Cambridge and Ely, Huntingdon and Fenland and Greater Peterborough.  In order to maximise their impact these CEPNs decided to pool their resources and form one central ‘Training Hub’ working at scale across the locality.

Representatives from each CEPN, including Practice Managers, General Practice Nurses and GPs, sit on the steering group along with wider stakeholders such as NHS Cambridgeshire & Peterborough.
