TRAINING IN IRELAND

Formal training in Ireland is divided into the Basic Specialist Training and Higher Specialist Training programme.

​On 20th May 2021, National Doctors Training & Planning (NDTP) launched an E-Portfolio module on the NER portal to allow NCHDs not on a formal training scheme to access a generic standard document to record their training and career development. This can be used to generate a logbook to obtain recognition of their experience.
