Educational agreement
between the trainer and the GPR
Why have an educational agreement?
- A framework for expectations
- Increases understanding of learning effectively
- Reduces risk
- A framework for dealing with problems
How?
- Off the peg, customised and updated (usually little GPR input therefore less "ownership") eg
example educational contract from Caldbeck Surgery
- A grid and framework, the educational agreement discussed and developed individually with the GPR to underwrite the expected educational process

If an arbitration clause is included, this could be the Training Programme Director
