HEE Study Leave changes (Doctors in Training)

Study leave course lists have been constructed by each Head of Speciality Schools/Training Programme Directors with oversight and approval of the Post Graduate Deans. You are able to claim for all the mandated and optional courses that are listed against your specialty, with no upper limit on the amount of budget to fund these.

You should review the HEE course list when discussing leave with your ES and agree the relevant course code. Before leave for optional courses is agreed, you need to evidence to your ES that you have completed the mandatory training first.

You can view the list of course codes, study leave updates and frequently asked questions by visiting the LASE PGMDE Support Portal, and clicking on the study leave section.

All courses need to ideally take place in the KSS region, or evidenced as to why it cannot.
