Trainee Specialist Registration - Non EU/EEA Trained Doctors
Doctors registered in the trainee specialist division are on recognised training programmes and practice solely within the confines of individually numbered identifiable training posts, allocated by the Health Service Executive (HSE), in conjunction with the national postgraduate training bodies.
Non European Union/ European Economic Area trained applicants are doctors who:
- Completed their basic medical training in a Non European Union/ European Economic Area member state
OR
- Who only completed part of their medical training in an European Union/ European Economic Area member state. This typically would be an applicant who completed a medical degree in the European Union/ European Economic Area member state but who did not complete their internship in the same European Union/ European Economic Area member state.
Application Process
Doctors who establish eligibility for General Registration are automatically eligible for Trainee Specialist Registration. Applications should be made in the first instance for General Registration and Trainee Specialist Registration will be granted when the training programme commences.
Non European Union/ European Economic Area trained doctors must submit their application through the online registration account.
Non European Union/ European Economic Area qualified applicants for registration are required to have their medical education credentials primary source verified in advance of making their application for registration.
