Contracts, Terms and Conditions

Trainees have a contract of employment with their employing trust and an educational contract with the Deanery. The banding payments for out of hours work vary between trusts. The time for starting on call also varies between training programmes.

Out of Programme Experience

Trainees wishing to undertake research or training outside their training programme can do this with deanery and college approval. A prospective application to GMC must be made by the deanery for this to count towards CCT.

Educational Support

Programme directors are supported by college tutors based at each hospital delivering teaching and clinical tutors responsible for each module of teaching delivered.
