How long can I train LTFT for?

Modified on Fri, 20 Jan 2023 at 02:49 PM

Child Care/ Health/Disability/Caring Responsibilities 

For category 1 health reasons and caring responsibilities, we will grant approval to train LTFT indefinitely until the trainee notifies us and their Training Programme Director otherwise. For child-care you can train LTFT until your youngest child is 18 years old.


Welfare/Wellbeing/Unique Opportunities/Religious Commitment/Non-Medical Development/Training or Career Development

Trainees will keep their LTFT status for the remainder of the training unless a further WTE change is requested. All requests to change a WTE must be made within HET LTFT windows (including increase, decrease or return to full time).
