Overview
Recently there has been much change in the commissioning landscape. It is essential for third sector providers to know how to work within this environment to develop good working relationships with H&SC commissioners and to win contracts. Learn about good practice in local, regional and national commissioning.
The past year has also seen the introduction of personal budgets in some social care services. By 2011 personal budgets will be implemented to most H&SC services. Is your organisation ready for the change? Do you have the knowledge and skills required to face the challenges ahead and embrace the opportunities created? Learn from organisations that have already made the change.
Additionally NHS staff will now be able to set up their own social enterprises through the right to request which will create a whole new set of challenges for third sector providers. How will your organisation compete and keep ahead of these new social enterprises?
Attend this conference to hear from a range of experts and ensure you have the latest knowledge and skills to effectively lead your organisation through the next decade.

- The vision for a world class commissioning structure
- Local, regional and national commissioning
