Information for Trusts

If you would like to have one or more MTI trainees for your ED then please get in touch with the School of Emergency Medicine in your region.
 
MTI trainees in Emergency Medicine are recruited by the College of Emergency Medicine. Once a suitable candidate has been identified the consultant who will be supervising the trainee will be asked to conduct a telephone interview with the candidate (the College will forward an interview template for this purpose). The trusts are not required to sponsor any visa applications as this is taken care of by the national scheme sponsor (currently the Academy of Medical Royal Colleges). The Medical Training Initiative is a government authorised exchange operated under Tier 5 of the Points Based System.
 
MTI trainees should be offered an NHS induction, a trust induction and a departmental induction. They should also have access to the same training opportunities as other trainees in the department. As the Medical Training Initiative is a training scheme, MTI trainees cannot fill service posts.
