These are newly created training posts that are attached to permanent acute inpatient posts and have been developed as part on an ongoing agenda to promote new roles within the Trust. The training posts have been banded at an 8c (Agenda for change) pay grade with this banding increasing to 8d (AfC) when trainees achieve their Approved Clinician status and start to work autonomously in this role.
