Enrolment/Trainee Registration

IMPORTANT UPDATES:

UK Enrolment/Trainee Registration Application Period


The Gold Guide, a guide to postgraduate specialty training in the UK, requires all trainees to be registered with their College as a specialty trainee.  We have, previously referred to this as enrolment but from now on it will be Trainee Registration and Retention and the fee attached to it will be referred to as the Trainee Registration and Retention Fee.  We have amended as far as possible all existing references, but in all cases, any remaining reference to, "enrolment" should be read as meaning "Trainee Registration and Retention". 

  • Applications will not be accepted earlier than the published opening date. 

  • Please note there will be a new enrolment/trainee registration form for this round, you must  submit a new form.  Any old forms will be returned to you. 

  • Incomplete or late applications will not be accepted, so you are advised to ensure that your application arrives in time.

  • In a change to previous rounds you may be able to enrol if you are not in a paediatric training post. You must be:
    1.  In-between posts and intending to return to a training post shortly
    2. Your Educational Supervisor or College Tutor must support your application by 
         completing the following form. Non training post trainees Non training post trainees
         This must be submitted with your enrolment/trainee registration form.
     
  • Please note that if you do not know your Educational Supervisors details at the time of filling out your form, you can still enrol, and you will still gain access to your ePortfolio and online assessment (ASSET) accounts.  However you will be limited as to what you can do with these accounts until you are linked to your Educational Supervisor.  Please see the ePortfolio part of the website for details regarding how Educational Supervisors can be linked to a trainees ePortfolio account. For your online assessment account, contact the ASSET team when you have this information. 

  • If you wish to enrol/register because you are an IPTS trainee please note that this is a separate process to UK enrolment/trainee registration.  You will need to contact the IPTS department for information regarding this.  

 

DEADLINES FOR RECEIPT OF APPLICATIONS:

  • The completed application form, accompanied by the appropriate fee and any other documents required must reach the College before the published closing date.

  • Allowances cannot be made for postal or other delays, and late or incomplete applications cannot be accepted. Applications that arrive after the closing date will be returned.

  • Applications that are late due to insufficient postage will not be accepted.  The college is not responsible for paying excess postage.
