Bridging the Gap

Bridging the Gap (BtG) courses are designed to ease the transition between F2 and core training. 

It is strongly recommended for all FY2 trainees to attend ONE full BtG day (one full-day course or two half-day courses) . It is optional for you to take ONE additional BtG day providing that there is a space. You must not do more than one full-day equivalent of skills themed or speciality themed courses. 

For further information see the Bridging the Gap 2025-26 Guidance below.

The dates, times and locations of each session can be found in the Bridging the Gap Course Booklet below. The 2025-26 booklet is due to be published shortly.

There is an upper attendance limit for each session so please book early to avoid disappointment.
