STUDY LEAVE

To ensure fair and equitable access to study leave, there is a list of approved courses on the deanery website. This replaces the matrix that existed previously.

If you wish to attend a course not on this list (or that isn’t approved at your stage of training), then you will need to apply for discretional/aspirational leave.

This is applied for via ACCENT – please ensure you explain WHY you need to attend this study leave event in the NOTES section of the application.

If you have any difficulty using ACCENT, then you can raise a request with the study leave team using the freshdesk portal: https://nhs-help.freshdesk.com/support/home
