This means that all University fees are paid by NHSE. If, during your training year, you’re employed by the NHS, you’ll be on a national pay and conditions system called Agenda for Change (AfC). There are nine pay bands and you’ll usually be paid at Band 4 while you train. After completing your training, you’ll be paid at Band 5, with the opportunity to progress with experience. Terms and conditions can vary if you’re employed outside the NHS. It’s important to note that a two-year psychological professions funding rule policy was implemented on 1 April 2022. This means that if you start NHS-funded psychological professions training from April 2022, you won’t be eligible for NHS funding for further psychological profession training for two years from the expected completion date of your first training, where it would lead to a change in your job role.
