Thats the management training scheme for you! It churns out clones who get plum jobs by virtue of being on the scheme through the old boys and girls networks regardless of their experience/ competence.

Yes there are a few good people pop out from the scheme, but there are others who talk the talk and flit from job to job on the back of the schemes reputation, moving on before they get found out, while other more competent individuals are overlooked - yes Im bitter :-)

I hope that one of the outcomes of Francis will be to look at the contribution of the scheme to the current ills in the NHS as I've worked for some hopeless ex management trainees
