SAS Doctors Development Fund
Health Education England North West (HEE-NW) funding allows generic courses to be tailored to the needs of the group to support personal and professional development.
You are also encouraged to make maximum use of the HEE-NW bursary scheme which is around £1,000 and doctors have used the fund for developmental and educational courses. The bursary has been used before in many courses such as "Advanced Skills in Vascular Surgery", "Medical Leadership in Practice", “Online Master’s degree e.g. ChM in Urology or Masters in Sports Medicine” and the “Postgraduate Certificate in Medical Education”. It can be still used for clinical courses if required, but SAS doctors and Senior Clinical Fellows are encouraged to use their own Trust study leave budget for such courses at the first instance.
Further information about this can be accessed through HEE-NW SAS Doctors webpage
