We support continued professional development, with interests in research, teaching or the SVT actively encouraged. Non-clinical time is allocated for CPD and unit responsibilities. There are regular opportunities to attend conferences including the annual SVT and CX symposium. We are an accredited STP & HSST training centre and play an active role in the programme.
