HEE (now NHSE) funded Stage 2 doctoral level Trainees
HEE (now known as NHSE) is funding seven trainee health psychologist roles – one in each of the seven NHS regions in England – to deliver projects and learning as part of a two-year programme. Trainees will be involved in work where behaviour change is vital to introduce new ways of working and support workforce transformation or redesign. Additionally, they will develop and conduct research projects and will also train others within the health and care system.
