East Sussex Medical Education (ESME) support a number of training posts and programmes for differing levels of our doctors in training in a variety of specialities.
- Foundation doctors spend four months in their chosen specialty, learning key skills that they can then utilise for the rest of their career
- Internal Medical Trainees (IMT) are keen to develop a career in their chosen specialty or a related one, and are supported to do so, whereas higher level trainees are encouraged to learn speciality specific focussed skills
- GP Speciality Training Programme (STP) details can be found at www.gptrainingeastsussex.co.uk
- SAS doctors (dedicated to non-training posts)
Each grade and type of trainee has a different educational curriculum to follow and complete
Learning opportunities are made available, specifically tailored to their respective department, to support the trainee to meet their educational objectives
