North West Purchasing Consortium sign up for the Achilles EU Academy

"As the first NHS client, we are excited by the prospect that all the procurement teams within the consortium will be trained to the same level.  We have previously held a number of Advanced European Union Masterclasses with Achilles, but the EU Academy’s comprehensive nature seems to fit with helping to reduce risks and ensure the NHS clients are kept up-to-date and compliant."
