Genomics Education Programme
Hospitals and Health Care
Preparing the healthcare workforce to harness the power of genomic medicine.
About us
The Genomics Education Programme (GEP) is the NHS’s method of ensuring its staff have the knowledge, skills and experience to ensure that the health service remains a world leader in genomic and precision medicine – particularly for NHS England Genomic Medicine Centres (GMCs) and the contribution to the 100,000 Genomes Project. The GEP is achieving this through a three-fold approach: - Directly supporting those professionals involved in the 100,000 Genomes Project and Microbial Genomes work. - Supporting the wider transformation of services to integrate genomic technologies into healthcare. - Upskilling existing staff so they can make the most of genomic technologies in their work.
