General Practice Vocational Training Scheme

Start Your Journey as a General Practice Nurse in North East London

The North East London General Practice Nurse Vocational Training Scheme (NEL GPN VTS) offers registered nurses a structured 12-month pathway into a rewarding career in general practice.

Combining clinical practice, academic study, and professional supervision, the programme equips nurses with the confidence, skills, and knowledge to deliver safe, high-quality care in primary care settings.

What truly sets the NEL GPN VTS apart is the dedicated support from the Scheme Coordinators. Acting as the link between trainees, practices, universities, and the ICB, they provide:

  • Regular contact and pastoral guidance for trainees
  • Tailored support for practice supervisors and assessors
  • Additional supervision, practice visits, and training sessions

This proactive coordination ensures that both trainees and practices are supported every step of the way. With a proven track record of success, the NEL GPN VTS continues to build a strong and sustainable general practice nursing workforce across North East London.
