NEW: Your Future Plan event - Achieve: Applying for the NHS Scientific Training Programme 2021, Tue 2 Feb 2021, 2:15 pm - 3:45 pm
The NHS Scientist Training Programme (STP) is for well-qualified science graduates with a passion for science and patient care, and with the motivation, behaviours and values needed for the NHS of the future.
As a trainee you will be employed in a scientific department, normally in the NHS (or in some cases by an NHS private partner or a private healthcare provider), for a three-year training period. During this time, you will complete
- a part-time master’s degree (fully funded)
- a programme of workplace training, using an e-portfolio
- a final assessment of competence
The training post is salaried at NHS Agenda for Change Band 6 (currently approximately £31k). On graduating, you would be eligible for statutory Clinical Scientist registration with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and would be able to apply for Clinical Scientist roles in the Health Service.
