We understand that starting a new role, especially as an ECT, comes with a mix of excitement and questions. To help you settle in and make the most of your Induction, we've put together the KGA ECT handbook.
This comprehensive guide is designed to provide you with all the essential information about our programme.
The handbook details what your initial first few weeks at KGA will look like, including key dates and training information, your support network and much more. It also includes a comprehensive FAQ section addressing common questions new ECTs have. We encourage you to read through it at your earliest convenience.
