So you are in your own job, then you could be out on placement or study leave for a block of time. The time out training equates to 4600 hours over the duration of the course. While the Trust receives £4000 towards backfill, it is estimated that it costs around £25k to train each person in terms of covering your post when you are studying or on placement. So there is not an automatic entitlement to apply. Places are limited and applicants are shortlisted based on their application form and then selected by interview. UNISON offers interview prep workshops in each Trust for those members shortlisted. We also recommend attending our free member workshops on clinical and non clinical topics and workshops such as Dignity in Health & Social Care can support the application and interview process.
