Getting Support
If you need assistance when applying for leave, please review our guidance pages on requesting leave and expenses and/or the Study Leave Policy.
You may also wish to contact your Programme Office (Primary Care) or local Study Leave Co-ordinator (Foundation/Secondary Care), who are usually based in your local Education Centre. Depending on your query, you may need to contact an NHS England East Midlands team. A list of all Study Leave Coordinators, relevant NHS England teams and their contact details is available at the bottom of this page.
We also have new guidance available on the NHS Learning Hub, specifically about study leave in the East Midlands and Accent Leave Manager.
If you're unsure who to contact with your query, please check the below FAQs.
