Applying to Higher Specialty Training
This page outlines Higher Specialty Training and provides a link to further information.
For specialties which aren’t run-through programmes you will have to apply for the second stage of training, eg ST3.
Find out more in the Applicant Handbook at NHS Specialty Training website. [1]
In order to complete specialty training you need to pass annual reviews and may need to sit membership exams. On successful completion, the Certificate of Completion of training [2] (CCT [3]) is awarded. You can apply for consultant roles six months prior to achieving your Certificate of Completion of Training [2] (CCT [3]).
