Foundation Programme Directors
There are fifteen foundation programme directors (FPDs) based across Wales.
The FPDs responsibility is to ensure that a quality programme is being delivered and that each trainee doctor is adequately supervised throughout their training.
The FPDs are also responsible for assessing each foundation doctor at the end of their F1 and F2 years, and to provide additional support if required.
