Using an International Delphi Study to explore how learning disability awareness training for NHS Trust staff can have the maximum impact

Summary of a modified International Delphi survey which was undertaken to identify, and reach consensus on learning disability training programmes for NHS trust staff in England.

The National Development Team for Inclusion (NDTi) was commissioned in 2019 by the South Regional Health Education England Intellectual Disabilities programme to find and share best practice in training people who work in NHS Trusts to support people with learning disabilities. The aim is to support staff development to help them achieve better outcomes when they are working with people with learning disabilities. Further information about the project can be found here.

This is a summary of a modified International Delphi survey which was undertaken to identify, and reach consensus on: the aims, design and content, and ways to maximise the impact, of learning disability training programmes for NHS Trust staff in England.
