LTFT (Less Than Full Time Training)
Less Than Full Time training can be a mine-field for both trainees and trainers. There is a wealth of information to be accessed from HEWM, the RCoA and the AAGBI. If you need to seek advice contact either the LTFT Advisor or LTFT Trainee Rep
Dr Stephen Norris and Dr Helen Daley have written a guide to LTFT within the Stoke School and West Midlands Deanery. Along with this the RCoA and AAGBI have released a guide for TPDs which is a valuable resource for trainers.
