Health Education and Improvement Wales (HEIW) is the strategic workforce body for NHS Wales. As a Special Health Authority, we have a unique contribution to make in addressing strategic and specialist workforce issues, making Wales a great place to train and work for our health and care staff and maximising the contribution of all professions and occupations through our statutory functions.
We plan, commission, deliver and quality manage undergraduate and postgraduate education and training for a wide range of health professions. We are the Welsh Government’s development partner for the suite of healthcare apprenticeship frameworks. We spend the largest proportion of our budget on commissioning education and training for NHS Wales to ensure future supply.
We support the development of the workforce and organisational development profession within Wales.
