Exit questionnaires
Please also see attached, exit questionnaires for placements, the supervisor and the programme.
The geographical delivery of the specialty training programme is organised into a North and a South zone.
The North zone covers the counties of Norfolk, Suffolk, Cambridge and Bedfordshire.
The South zone covers the counties of Essex and Hertfordshire.
Organisations providing placement opportunities are grouped in to locations.
Each location has an administrative "Training lead" who has reponsibility for the training environment in the location for the specialty training programme, but, depending on the location, more broadly across the department or unit. The training lead understands the current capacity for training - clinical supervisors, office facilities etc.
See the HEEoE policy
