DEFENCE DEANERY (ARMED FORCES)

The Defence Postgraduate Medical Deanery was established as a completely separate and stand-alone unit of the Defence Medical Education & Training Agency in March 2002. The structure of the deanery is inclusive and innovative, largely based on the National Health Service (NHS) Deanery structure to ensure compatibility with NHS. Its role, structure and vision/aspirations provide a sound basis for a professional Defence Medical Service.

The deanery is located close to the city centre of Birmingham at Birmingham Research Park, adjacent to the University of Birmingham Campus. Its close proximity to the university and to the West Midland Deanery enables it to foster a sound relationship between the organisations, with mutual benefits to all concerned. The site map is located at the Birmingham Research Park Website

The Department of General Practice is lead by the Director of Postgraduate General Practice Education (DPGPE) whose principal responsibility within DPMD is the management of Vocational Training for General Practice (GPVT). The DPGPE, who is also the Defence Specialty Adviser in General Practice to the Surgeon General, is assisted by 3 Deputy Directors each of whom is also the single Service Adviser in General Practice within their respective Service.

The remainder of the team is made up of Associate Advisers and Course Organizers across the single Services, each of whom has specific responsibilities within GP postgraduate education.
