The Darzi Fellowship Programme aims to develop future clinical leaders by combining work-based experience, working on a Fellowship Challenge, as well as academic study through our bespoke leadership development programme: PGCert Leadership in Health (Darzi).  The Darzi Fellows will come from a variety of clinical backgrounds, which allows a multi-professional learning opportunity.  

Host organisations apply directly to the Health Systems Innovation Lab, via the application form that can be found in the 'How To Apply' section of this site. We will work with you in a collaborative way to develop your Fellowship challenge and assign Fellowship positions as appropriate. Once you have been granted a Fellowship position, your organisation works to advertise the position (guided by the Job Description document, which is also available in the 'How To Apply' section) and selects a Fellow who will complete the PgCert Leadership in Health and undertake the Fellowship Challenge.

Each host organisation will provide the Fellows' salary and costs - the PGCert Leadership in Health (Darzi) fees for the 2024/25 cohort are proposed as £11,950. Host organisations are encouraged to access local funding opportunities for clinical leadership development to support their fellowship/s.
