About us

Lead Dean Directors, Deputy Lead Dean Directors, Associate Deans & Assistant GP Directors

 

Our Lead Dean Directors, Deputy Lead Dean Directors, Associate Postgraduate Deans and Assistant GP Directors provide practical knowledge, experience and accountability for postgraduate medical training throughout Scotland.

The Scotland Deanery has three Lead Dean Directors and three Deputy Lead Dean Directors. For information about the Dental Postgraduate Dean and Associate Postgraduate Dean, please refer to the dental section of our website.  

The day to day management of specialty training, including responsibility for the quality management of Specialty Training programmes, rests with the Lead Dean Directors and Deputy Lead Dean Directors who are accountable to the Executive Medical Director and NES. Each Dean/Deputy Dean is responsible for one or more of the specialty groupings and works with Associate Deans, GP Associate Advisors, Training and Quality Managers and their teams to ensure the delivery of postgraduate medical training. 

The Executive Medical Director and Deputy Medical Director, Lead Dean Directors and Deputy Lead Dean Directors are ultimately accountable for managing the delivery of postgraduate medical training to the standards required by the regulatory body, the General Medical Council (GMC).
