HSE National Flexible Training Scheme

The HSE National Flexible Training Scheme  is a national scheme funded by the Health Service Executives Medical Education & Training (MET) Unit.

The scheme provides for a limited number of supernumerary places to facilitate doctors at higher specialist training level to continue their training in a flexible manner for a set period of time.

The policy document sets out the details of the National Flexible Training Scheme and provides information for trainees about the programme and the application process. Further information can be located at the HSE’s website.
