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.
