Is there a limit on the number of international study leave events that I can attend?

Yes, HEE will consider one international event for any one programme, which is defined as Foundation, Core or Higher training. For those trainees on run-through programmes there is a limit to one international event every three years. It is expected that international courses and conferences will be allowed in very exceptional circumstances and trainees should check on the website for further details. Trainees should not commit to the costs of international events until approval has been received.


Any international conferences attended prior to August 2019 will be taken into consideration when assessing applications for discretionary international funding.
